You’re a lying fool.

Legalization will create an untold overwhelming number (millions) of dopers and addicts unable to work and entirely dependent on crime and welfare for their pitiful existence.

I get that you equate beer and marijuana as equal and that Marijuana Prohibition is as evil as when booze was banned.

But heroin? You seriously wanna take a stab at arguing the benefits of legalizing heroin?

Go for it, troll.

So you think there are untold millions who are deterred by the chance of arrest and conviction, but absent that chance would not be deterred by the inherent dangers of the drug? Why should anyone believe that dubious claim? Are YOU such a person?

Sure thing. Here’s the benefits:

The drug gangs no longer control the product. No more turf wars over heroin. Safeway and Costco fight over market share.

Purity goes up to pharma grade. Much more potent stuff kills addicts quicker.

Price goes down. No more robbing grandma for her money.

Reduced access to minors. It’s easier to get heroin than it is to get beer for kids these days.

Billions saved by ending the DEA.

4th and 5th Amendments restored to their former glory.

Corrupt cops have to find some other way to make side money.

Not much downside to it if you apply a bit of logic.
