Look. You’ve said you’re for legalizing heroin. I don’t think there is any reason to discuss all the nuances of your sophistry as you peddle dope and dopey ideas. You’re a sick person. Seek help. Say some prayers.
Wow. $5B is insignificant. Or is “only.”
Did you include all of the costs to all of the social programs due to illegal aliens? All costs.
And what are the costs of a down and out addict? A person who is so dependent on the drugs that he or she can’t work and their sole purpose in life is to get that next fix. And if money doesn’t exist, they resort theft and other violent means of getting the cash to buy the drugs.
And legalizing drugs like meth and heroin doesn’t magically make the addiction go away. Plus a legalized drug is more expensive as we are finding out with pot (medical versus non-medical).
What effort? The ICE budget is only $5B, whereas we spend an estimated $40B on the War on Drugs.

Are they part of "our effort to control illegal immigration"?

Nor has criminalization - but criminalization has seen to it that addicts and other users enrich criminals.

Heavily taxed and regulated legal drugs may be more expensive - keep those factors in line with those for the legal drug alcohol, and you'll see about as much illegal trade as you do in illegal alcohol (that is, almost none).
No, not everyone, but certainly you do.
No, not everyone, but certainly you do.
So I - but not others - "promote" alcohol and tobacco by supporting their legality.
I'll let your bizarre claim speak for itself.
No, you do. You’re like the people who campaign for abortion. They always say they want it safe and rare. Yet they really want it often. You, as an admitted pot head, know you are for its use. Your interest in this subject seems to all consuming to just be discussing social policy. Previously, you’ve also said you’re for legalizing all commodities and services, heroin, meth, and prostitution. So really, how would you expect me to think you’re just disinterested in whether people actually use dope. You’re for it, and you’re damn sure against the people who are against pot use. You wouldn’t waste all your time here if you were not against us.

No, you do.
So you stand by and reiterate your claim that I - but not others - "promote" alcohol and tobacco by supporting their legality.

As I told you, I stopped using pot decades ago, so why would I be "for" its use?
Previously, you’ve also said you’re for legalizing all commodities and services, heroin, meth, and prostitution.
There aren't enough hours in a lifetime for me to do all the things I think should be legal - which are all those things that violate nobody else's rights.
Yeah, I was right.
