Rational conversations with prohibitionists are impossible because prohibition is extremely irrational.
Rational people react poorly to anti-cannabis propaganda because people just don’t like being lied to or being slandered as “druggies” for not buying into it. The ad hominem serves to solidify the impression that prohibitionists are every bit as dishonest as any other leftist.
“The ad hominem serves to solidify the impression that prohibitionists are every bit as dishonest as any other leftist.”
It’s prima facie proof.

There you go again, with your druggie hysteria. “Reefer madness! Reefer madness! Reefer madness!”
I’ve been in FR since just after 9/11 and never once, not a single time, advocated drug laws or making any drug illegal.
You see what you do? I try to talk about the dangers of pot to the brain, especially to the adolescent brain, and it’s instantly “Reefer madness! Reefer madness! Reefer madness!”
Just like a leftist.
