In that example, is it the increased (I'm assuming) use in drugs, the increased threat to children or the blanket reaction to protect children through legislation that is the biggest issue?

Some things are evolutionary in nature...you can't just plot two points on a curve and get a realistic picture of the change.

a sign near a school is not going to do anything to keep it a drug free zone

pretty sad

like the dealers are going to pay any attention to some sign

we need more faith

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

So your answer to the question, in this instance ,would be that going from no drug use, or point A , to rampant drug use, point B, is evolutionary?

If so,what do you think is the cause of the evolution?

Sure , the dealers pay attrntion to those signs, they even look for them. Untapped customers...

I think you'd have to look at the various signs that have contributed to drug use increases...which are wide and have evolved over time.

It's not all that simple.
