Punishment

Punishment should always fit the crime. To punish for the mere possession of an inanimate object more strictly than crimes which directly affect individuals and cause harm or death, to me is unjust, and way out of whack. If someone kills someone under the influence of drugs or alcohol, then let the punishment be according to the crime, the mere possession of drugs causes no one harm. Looks at the trillions wasted on combating illegal drugs, and all we have done is create drug cartels more powerful then our own mafia could ever dream of.
