“Do you think drugs should be legalized?” The first time I was asked this question, I got so angry I left the room. My response was typical of my demographic as a politically conservative Christian woman. Have you lost your mind, not to mention your faith? Drugs can cause catastrophic destruction of lives and families. So why on earth would we legalize them?
