The last time I looked Criminal law is a form of social “pressure.” I wish the druggies would admit they need and want unfettered access to a flow of drugs. All the hypocrisy about the benefit of legalizing drugs-such as pain control- is merely an effective technique by the organized left to gain access to a burgeoning market. Look how quick Colorado moved to get the tax dollars. The widespread legalization of drugs is merely a symptom of an on going degeneration of American morals. Money trumps any and all other considerations. Sad but that is our times./p>

Temperance was a voluntary movement of social pressure and public awareness - that should be our approach to other drugs as well.

Which part of "voluntary" did you not understand?

Must everything immoral be illegal?
