Anti,
While the stats may vary from year to year, I believe your underlying point is substantially correct.
If the drugs we most strictly regulate were determined by each drug's own intrinsic detrimental pharmacology, then beverage alcohol (ethanol), and tobacco would be among the most highly restricted drugs in the country.

PS
To anyone interested, Anti may have been remiss in omitting links to these data. But why entrust your own political position on it to ONE Internet reference. I believe if you each do your own Googling about it, you'll find independent corroboration of the essence of this thread.

It's not a "War on Drugs". It's a conspiracy to treason against United States citizens, by members of their own government.
