So your saying there will be no increase in usage if it is legalized?

Really.

I'm saying quite clearly that anyone who wants to use drugs...already is using drugs...The law doesnt stop anything...it only facilitates the black market.

The idea that masses of people are going to rush out and start using drugs is a strawman argument.

The same argument was used against the repeal of prohibition of booze...and it was proven to be wrong...

Alcohol use actually dropped after repeal.
