War on drugs breaks through to perpetuate crime myths.America is trying a war on drugs for the last 100 years or so but it has not succeeded fully so far. They have been locking black people in jail perpetually but it is perhaps not helping the cause of war on drugs.This can be considered first myth.
Increasing the severity of punishment is also not helping the cause of war on drugs.This can be thought of second myth.US Criminal Justice system has changed over the years.
Domestic impact of war on drugs is profound.Its consequences do not stop at the border.Prohibition of drugs affects health,crime,corruption and violence.Moreover,these effects are self perpetuating.
