Strawman, strawman, don't you realise what a fire hazard you are presenting here?

Not to mention how many times your strawmen have been set free by the simple truths that you drug warriors refuse to see... that rape, robbery and murder are considered "malum in se," that is, because they have real VICTIMS, they are evil acts, in and of themselves. Drug possession and use are "malum prohibitum," that is, they are only "evil" because some power-hungry government pervert SAYS they are. (At a guess, one of those would be you. Am I right?) The actual CRIME associated with drugs comes from the drug LAWS, that is, without the laws prohibiting the recreational use of unapproved drugs, there would be a level of drug related crime approaching about zero. Of course, there would be no Grand Theft (asset forfeiture) for the WODDIES to profit from and no more payola to judges, supervisorial cops and legislators from the dealers, so those folks would have to find REAL work for a change. Prisons would then have more room for REAL criminals...those murderers and rapists you seem to like so much... and we, the people, might once more be secure in our persons, papers and property, not to mention our wallets, when we no longer have to fund all you jackbooted thugs to the tune of BILLIONS per year, not including your bribe monies.

Of course, no harm to individuals, families, or other people at large would occur with legalized drug use. Just like prostitution is really good for women and men.

Moron. Grow up.
