Every time you open your mouth to claim that legalizing illegal drugs will be good for society.

Please identify how it will be any worse than alcohol. I'm not sure anyone is suggesting drug use itself will be better but the side effects to our liberties and reduction in drug related violence would be beneficial. Not to mention all the juicy law suites to be filed against drug suppliers, thereby making drugs an unprofitable business venture (profitable for lawyers).

Don't know that it is, but alcohol is legal, pot is not.

Prove your claim.

Not to mention all the juicy law (suites) sp. to be filed against drug suppliers, thereby making drugs an unprofitable business venture (profitable for lawyers).

You are trying to use logic with someone who can't recognize it - and apparently has a bit of trouble with reading comprehension. See, if someone says, "There are negative consequences of the War on Drugs which are violative of our liberty and which are not even close to outweighed by any benefits it may have," he reads, "If we legalize drugs everyone will be blissfully happy and healthy and the sky will be brighter and the flowers will smell better and the kids will be smarter, etc., etc." Then he will call you a liar for saying what he reads, instead of what you say. And one who will call someone a liar without even making an effort to support the charge has no honor and no stones.
