“Like Prohibition or not but after it was repealed the amount of alcohol related deaths, diseases and social dysfunction sky rocketed. sorry but it really happened”

On the contrary, figure 1 (page 11) at https://pubs.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/Surveillance93/Cirr09.pdf shows cirrhosis deaths flat until 1950.

You are just plain wrong. The amount of alcohol related trauma (car accidents,drownings, falls etc) rose considerably after the repeal of prohibition. Illegal drug use, including extensive marijuana use, has been a disaster for this country in every way imaginable. Try speaking to a mother or father who lost a child to drug use or the effect it has had on families and entire communities. Then again trying to convince people who’s brains are soaked with cannabis is foolish and futile. They do not have the capacity to comprehend and are not worth the time. Just wish they didn’t procreate, but they do.
