As another native of Southern Arizona, I agree with Kai -- the "war on drugs" has been dreadfully ineffective and terribly unjust as a means of combating this nation's problems with drugs, crime, addiction, and the general breakdown of healthy society. Which means, of course, that it's gone just swimmingly as a war on poor people, dark-skinned people, and women involved with bad guys. I for one believe that's neither an unintended consequence NOR a messy display of collateral damage, and the truly pro-life, pro-justice, pro-family and pro-Constitution'ers around us ought to examine just where and how we got so desperately off track.

Re: [Vision2020] Medical marijuana
I spent several days in July wandering around southern Arizona, showing
my wife where I grew up, visiting old friends and seeing what has
changed since my last visit.
After being closely watched as we parked in the downtown Nogales area,
just yards from the border to get a closer look at "the wall", being
followed as we traveled the back roads near Arivaca and having to pass
through Border Patrol checkpoints despite never having left United
States soil, I have come to a conclusion:
The U.S. must legalize ALL drugs and tax the hell out of them.
This "war on drugs" has destroyed Nogales and the surrounding areas. A
grade school I went to is having a large fence built around it, this
after a BP agent went tearing through school grounds in an SUV while
chasing someone. My old high school, which is now an alternative high
school, has chain link topped by barbed wire around most of the campus,
giving it the feel of a prison, not a school.
The entire city of Nogales has a weird vibe to it, mind you it has
always been a tough border town, but this is different. There is an
ominus feeling that was never there before, it permeates the city, one
can feel it in stores, on the street and in restaurants. Even my wife
commented on it and asked how we could have lived there for so long. I
told her it wasn't like that when I was younger.
The area around Arivaca, a hamlet in the middle of the Sonoran Desert
northeast of Nogales, is also much changed. At one time you'd be lucky
if you passed 3 or 4 cars between Arivaca and Amado a distance of about
25 miles. We encountered no less than 26 during the trip there and
back, not including those at the checkpoint.
I stopped a few times to get out take photos and point out things to my
wife along the Arivaca Road and Ruby Road, which leads south to
Nogales. On two occasions a BP truck parked where its occupant could
observe us, once on the Arivaca Road and the other one Ruby Road where
I got out to look over the property my parents used to own.
The solitude of the desert was shattered several times as choppers flew
past, including one Blackhawk.
If you want to know what it is like to be in a police state, spend some
time south of Tucson.
