And lets not forget that Libertarians want all drug laws overturned so they can all get legally stoned.

Well....that's certainly not what I want. But......I would be in favor of addicts buying their (discounted) drugs at Walgreen, Thrifty and Rex-All instead of the "Bloods" and the "Crips"...... Wouldn't you? At least they wouldn't be forced to break and enter, acquiring fenceable goods to sell to support their habit.

We will never learn the lesson of Prohibition which spawned the involvement of organized crime in the booze business and helped secure it a permanent foothold in our society. We have done the same thing with illicit drugs and wonder why there's a pusher on every school corner.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize.....if something is illegal there are Gazallions of dollars in profit to be made.......because of the risk. Take a poll. Ask how many drug dealers and pushers if they would like to see the drug laws repealed. You won't find a one!

Spoken like a true Liberaltarian.

Amen!

Replace the drug dealers with politicians and government employees.

And don’t forget the tax revenue on each ounce of crack or pound of pot!

Think of the thousands of new hospitals and prisons we could build to accomodate all the millions of new addicts reduced to poverty and crime as they are too stoned to go to school or work.

Yayy Liberaltarians!!!!

What’s wrong with wanting America to resemble the opium days of China one hundred years ago, anyway?

Prohibition is ALWAYS BAD, ya know?
