Re: Lynne Abraham to Michael Nutter: Gun Laws Unconstitutional, Will Not Enforce
You wanna solve Philadelphia's problems?
1. Birth control in the water supply.
2. Legalize (or at least decriminalize) most types of (now-illegal) drugs.
Drug dealers would be put out of business real fast, if a legitimate market opened up and sold better wares for cheaper, and on the up-and-up. Minus the drug trafficking, gangs simply can't survive, or at least not in the way they currently do. Another major effect of legalizing most types of drugs is that probably over half of the population of our prison system is there because of drug-related offenses. It would clear up more room for *real* criminals, like murderers, rapists, extortionists, etc..
