I don't believe that some illegal drugs should be legalized. Some people may argue that cannabis (marijuana and hashish) should be legalized. In my area, the drug is legal and the crime rate has boosted by nearly 20% since legalization. There are also no proven health benefits, which some people may argue against. In addition, narcotics, stimulants, hallucinogens, and depressants can all be deadly and cause problems for many people.
The roots of Jim Crow laws began as early as 1865, immediately following the ratification of the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery in the United States.
