   When a dear friend was killed by a driver on angel dust the DA prosecuted for   
   murder, not least because the deceased was also a friend of his biggest   
   electoral competitor.   
      
   I believe drugs should be legal but they should not be allowed to be used as   
   mitigating excuses. In other words when you take drugs you know you can kill   
   someone, so it behooves you to get treatment or hang for murder. The way they   
   increase charges for guns or "dangerous instrument", they should increase   
   charges for drugs. If you can lock yourself up so you don't hurt anyone while   
   on drugs, fine.
