My point is that legalizing pot won’t save one damn life.

Because the Mexican narcoterrorists need a legal cover for their money from kidnapping, extortion, human trafficking, and gun running.

Are you laboring under the delusion that narcoterrorists are currently unable to launder their money?

My point is that legalizing pot won’t save one damn life.

Because the cartels will just do more kidnapping, extortion, human trafficking, and gun running? (I'm guessing at your argument because you haven't fleshed it out.) Those activities offer lower profit margins than drug dealing (or else they'd have ditched drug dealing already) - so they'll assuredly end up with less material resources with which to conduct violence.
