Right... So then, when it becomes legal to sell pot to pushers, but not to the kids who buy it from them, then all the pushers are just going to change careers and stop selling to kids. OK. I get it now. Quick: Legalize drugs.

How many convenience stores do you know of that will sell a pack of smokes to someone who walks in and says, "Hi, I'm 15 years old, I'd like a pack of Marlboro Reds, please"?

This is not a relevant analogy. When most drug sales are legalized, those who make money selling drugs illegally will be forced to expand their target market.
