Hey, the war against murder has failed too. Guess we should just legalize it.

"Hey, the war against murder has failed too. Guess we should just legalize it."

Apples to volkswagons, fellow freeper. The act of murder deprives an innocent person of their liberty, and is justly illegal for that reason. Smoking [insert substance here] does not.

Beware the arguement that states "smoking [blank] and then stealing someone's DVD player is!". Yes, people who get high and then commit crimes ARE criminals. But if you advocate treating a criminal differently because of their motivations, you should also advocate "hate crimes".
