The War On Drugs

The Constitutionalist Party understands that although the War On Drugs is causing violations of civil liberties as well as promoting the prosecution of victimless crimes, America is not yet ready to end the effort. Despite numerous comparisons to the failure of Prohibition as well as the failure of any attempt to ban a demanded good or service from the public in the past, the majority of America still believes that the War On Drugs should be continued. Therefore, although the CP believes that ultimately the War On Drugs will be ended, it will require incremental steps and time before the American people are ready for it.

The CP suggests the following:

  1. For all states to pass laws legalizing marijuana for medicinal use.

  2. For the federal government to legalize the growing of industrial hemp (especially of the strains with no THC content whatsoever) in the United States and to allow for products made with industrial hemp to be sold publicly.

  3. When industrial hemp is legalized, any persons who are serving terms in prison for growing industrial hemp should be immediately exonerated.

  4. The federal government should restrict the persecution of drug laws so that absolutely no rights as held by the people are being violated, especially when concerning the Fourth Amendment.
