Comes from Alabama:

I agree that the government on the left and right have stuck their head in places it should not be, but when it comes to drugs they are not tough enough. When I was young in the late 60’s, my mother who was a nurse took me to UC Davis Medical Center and showed me the drug babies of mothers who were using drugs while pregnant. I remember a statistic that was hushed soon after it came out in the 90’s that said that 75% of babies born with open hearts (outside of their chest cavity) mothers smoked marijuana while they were pregnant. Also, driving under the influence of drugs is just as bad as driving under the influence of alcohol. Some drugs such as LSD can cause the baby to be born on a trip years later. SO, if you think that drug use is OK and should be legalized then there needs to be some stipulations. Anyone who wants to use drugs should not be allowed to have children ever, and should not be allowed to have a driver’s license and drive, since there is no quick test to determine if you are under the influence like the breath test for alcohol. I saw what drugs did to those babies and you will never change my opinion on drugs. Maybe you should see and take care of the drug babies to remind you!
