We tried banning alcohol once. That didn't work.

We're trying to ban various other drugs now. In case you didn't notice it, this ban isn't working either.

We just need to do more of what's been consistently failing. Yeah, that's the ticket!

We're trying to ban murder, rape, and robbery now. Those bans aren't working either - consider how busy the criminal courts are with such cases. Should we abandon those bans too?

Well, we're not really banning recreational drugs -- we're just making the possession and/or sales of them illegal.

And that is working just fine.
