cc may: I wonder what the hard line Drug Warriors think is motivating these experienced police officers [to call for drug legalization]?

muawiyah: What's motivating them? Well, in that line of work they came into close contact with dope dealers. So, I'd suggest it's the money eh?!

Bull. A legal, well regulated market would severely curtail the street dope dealers profits, and therefore reduce the opportunity for corrupt officials to profit as well. How much of a black market is there in the alcohol trade compared to illegal drugs?

Watching you cave in so easily to the "corrupt officer" argument.
