Nonsense. I would be no likelier to use heroin if it were legal; would you?
Cars have a legitimate, legal purpose, and can be used for good. Illicit drugs have no such purpose.
They have the same legitimate use as alcohol: to enhance one's enjoyment of one's circumstances.
Then all these smoking nazis who seem to think its their God-given right to smoke anywhere and everywhere come out and start demanding drug use rights.
The right to do something in no way implies a right to do it on property not one's own.

Are you SERIOUSLY suggesting that because you conducted a sample size of exactly two people, neither of who are between the ages of 12 and 25 (I'm guessing) and neither of whom (again, I'm guessing, but based on your comment here it seems safe) have ever even tried illicit drugs, not to mention one drug only, that this means drug use wouldn't increase? Aside from the obvious flaws in that, it defies logic to suggest drug use wouldn't increase. For one thing, people don't do some things strictly because it is illegal. For another, you have a guarantee of increased drug use because the people you would have arrested pre-legalization are not arrested and continue to use it. Are you assuming they quit post legalization?

BS. Alcohol can be consumed for reasons having nothing to do with intoxication. I have never been "buzzed," much less drunk in my life. I enjoy a good quality glass of champagne every now and then as I like the taste. I used to even like to drink an occassional wine cooler, but I haven't had one in a long time. I could drink either as a substitute for soda.
There are no illicit drugs that are taken for non-intoxicating effects.

I agree, but there are literally hundreds of people on here that disagree. Should I point you to the specific posts?
