You can get no reassurances from me, except that the 'War on Drugs' is
doomed to failure as a drug control measure as all forms of prohibition 
are by nature ineffective, so this drying up of the proverbial 'drug pond' 
will not take place.  But continued effort into the 'War on Drugs' can 
only create more of the violence to which you refer, most likely leading 
to the justification for the erosion of our constitutional rights and to 
change this country into some sort of police state.
