America is hooked on drugs!
Last week an item was broadcast over a Twin Cities television station about the public hearing at the Minnesota State Capitol where voices were raised by people who wanted the state to legalize recreational marijuana.
Minnesota already has approved the use of marijuana for medical purposes.
Now, on Friday I heard a report that Wisconsin’s new governor, Tony Evers, wants marijuana to be legalized in the Dairy State.
The United States has stood strong against all type of enemies, both domestic and foreign. But we will die by rotting our bodies and minds with drugs.
About a million and half pound of drugs enter our country through Mexico each year. The Wicked Witch of the West (Congressperson Nancy Pelosi) called a border wall “immoral”. Remember her statement on Obama Care. “We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it” and if you disagree with me you are sexist.”
According to Dr. Marilyn M. Singleton, MD, JD, President of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, “The multimillionaire, Pelosi is safe in her Nana Wine Country or San Francisco homes, far from the drug addicts, dirty needles, feces, gang members and homeless lining the streets of San Francisco.” Her homes are behind fences. Dr. Singleton continued her comments about Rep. Pelosi and her people, “claimed it would be ineffective in stopping everybody. That’s like the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stopping its flu vaccination campaign because the vaccine is only 40-60 percent effective.”
Those drugs coming in from Mexico are part of the problem that takes the lives of over 200 of our citizen every day from drug overdoses. Those overdoes deaths are like killing off the entire population of Eau Claire, Altoona and Glenwood City every year.
Walls work, or you would not see so many of them along the roadway and yards fenced off.
In 2002, 484 Israelites were murdered by terrorists. The next year they began building a wall along their border. Four years later, the number of Israelis killed by terrorists was reduced by 97 percent to 14.
The cost to the United States of illegal immigration is $156 Billion annually. The cost to build the wall is just $5 Billion.
