The Pope's a party pooper

Pope Francis condemned the legalization of recreational drugs as a flawed and failed experiment on Friday, lending his voice to a debate which is raging from the U.S. to Uruguay and beyond.

Francis told delegates to a drug-enforcement conference in Rome that even limited attempts to legalize recreational drugs "are not only highly questionable from a legislative standpoint, but they fail to produce the desired effects."

Likewise, providing addicts with drugs doesn't solve the problem and is "rather a veiled means of surrendering to the phenomenon," he said.

Someone should tell the pope that these people are already getting the drugs of their choice. Making it legal will remove the criminal element from the equation. Look how poorly the attempt by Colorado was to legalize weed. Oh wait, never mind. Seems hell didn't freeze over after all.
