The easiest way to stop drug trafficking is to kill the drug addicts. It is that simple.

I would appreciate the U.S. killing the rogue elements in the U.S. so I can finally live without the terror of those stupid crime ridden idiots. Every time I go into a major U.S. city they are infested with drug addicts.

The war on drugs is unwinnable because the U.S. government doesn't even know who the enemy is.

There was a cartoon strip, in the 1960's, called Pogo. It was a great kid's strip, but it also carried a huge political message during the Vietnam War. Kelly, the creator, did not like the war, or Nixon or the republicans. There was one line from it that I remember clearly: 'We have met the enemy and he is us.' It still applies.
