religous and racial bigotry

the elephant in the room regarding anti user (ilicid drugs) legislation (so called war on drugs) nationwide, is religous and racial bigotry, until this issue is confronted head on, no sane approach to aleviating the harm caused to the user and society as a whole, it's affect on the economy and the social fabric ( economic, civil libertys ,prison population and health concerns )just to scratch the surface .It must be noted that the governments approach to the drug problem has created an insurmountable dilema with no solution if the present policys persist , the only sane approach is a harm reduction stragety, we have not learned from the lessons we should have learned from alchol prohibition.
