True enough. But study after study has shown that drug and alcohol use are the biggest contributors to violence, particularly in the home.
So let me know when YOUR sister gets raped and thrown out a window by someone who is high.
Hey, suppose his sister caught a bullet in the crossfire from a violent turf war fought over illegal, drugs, can he have an opinion then?
What if his sister had her home burglarized by a desperate addict forced to pay prices that are inflated several orders of magnitude by the war on drugs, can he have an opinion then?
What if his sister was a judge in Colombia, executed by powerful and exceedingly well-funded organized criminals, then can he have an opinion?
Suppose his sister is going broke paying higher taxes both to pay for this insane civil war and to make up the shortfall from billions of dollars flowing through the entirely tax-free black market, is he allowed to have an opinion then?
If his sister's best friend died of an accidental overdose because her drug of choice was not labeled for potency like alcohol is, then does he get to have an opinion?
Many of us have sisters who are harmed in some way, large or small, by the War on Drugs. And every single sister who's been raped and thrown out a window by a drug addict in the past century has been done so while drugs were illegal. Drug prohibition has not prevented it.
