Still waiting for you to NAME ONE POT addict who can not obtain it illegally on the street.

The FACT is you can not name ONE. Because making it illegal does NOT stop it’s sale by criminals.

Learn the most basic fundamentals of economics. If there is
demand for any product at a good price, the supply will materialize, legal or not.

I would much rather prefer there were was no dope in the world. But that is not reality. People like you sit on their high horse and are happy when something you don’t like is made illegal, yet it is being sold right under your nose all around you ILLEGALLY. So who benefits? the CRIMINALS! So in effect you are advancing the cause of criminals.

Making anything illegal does not stop it.

Making shoplifting illegal doesn’t make it stop. It just makes it harder.

Making public nudity illegal doesn’t make it stop. It just makes it harder.

It would be much harder for me to get up from this keyboard and go find a pot dealer than for me to go literally around the corner and buy a beer. I would not know where to begin to buy pot. Beer is available at the corner store.

Of course making pot illegal makes it harder to get, duh.

I name myself. I am not a pot addict, but I have zero idea where I could get my hands on some.
