“Are you implying I break any drug laws? You're mistaken”
I'm implying no such thing. If you took it that way, I'm sorry.
“Yes, it takes both users and laws against sale. We've seen for alcohol and other drugs that such users can't be eliminated - the living-in-reality choice is to eliminate the laws”

“SOME drug users - inlcuing users of the addictive mind-altering drug alcohol - victimize their spouses and children by rendering themselves unable to meet their responsibilities. Why should ALL users - including those with no spouses or children - be punished?”
Why punish speeders who have never had a wreck?

Of course the real crimes are those someone else is committing.

Good to know. What did you mean by that statement about "someone else"?

Do you support removing fuel from the substance-use fire by re-banning alcohol?

Speeders pose a clear and present danger to others; this is not the case for users of alcohol or other drugs. Also, speed laws apply only on public roads whereas drug use takes place in private bloodstreams.
