I've been on more than a couple drug war and libertarian threads and have never seen that argument, let alone have it terms a "typical libertarian argument".

It's called "hyperbole." You might want to learn about it sometime.

No, it’s called a lie and you got busted.

Hyperbole would be that you tell a million lies. Or is that even an exaggeration, let alone hyperbole?

Wait...wait...drug warriors have a million justifications for subjecting OTHER individuals to supreme state power.

Yes, that is better.

here is some hyperbole for you....all those that want to continue to war on drugs support a police state, no knock warrant and the unwarrated shooting and killing of innocent civilians...remember, it is just hyperbole
