now you are trying to manipulate quotes to make it look as though I was responding to him?

No. The 'that' in your 'that is the "let's destroy society because we only have our own short little lifetime of experience to call on" Libertarian position' was HIS text ... as I indicated but you buffoonishly misunderstood (or perhaps are deliberately misrepresenting).

There is nothing conservative about introducing a poison into society.

That introduction was made decades ago.

New people are introduced to these dangerous substances every day of the week.

That's not "introducing into society" - squirming away from your previous silly characterization, eh?

it is people like you who are seriously wrecking people's lives because you insist on making it easier for more people to make contact with this crap.

I insist on treating my fellow citizens like adults; it is people like you who are seriously wrecking people's lives because you insist on enriching criminals and removing marijuana from effective regulation (such as age limits).

Drug Usage in the US is about 2% currently. By 1900 in China, in the province of Manchuria, it was about 50% of the population.

Even accepting your seriously deluded argument as fact, you are bitching about ruining the lives of 2% of the population in favor of a policy which will ruin the lives of 50% of the population.

Do you not understand simple math? 2%<50%, and by a factor of 25.

So on what planet is 25 times the damage an improvement? (Not to mention the 100 Million people murdered as a result of the COLLAPSE of Chinese Society.)
