I read it. I digested it. I clearly addressed his main points with substantive thought out rebuttals.

He’s an educated imbecile.

The “problems” you are talking about have already passed and have been replaced by other problems that are closer to home as you say. Some of the problems are with the so-called authorities who hand out clean needles to prevent HIV transmission. The needles may lessen HIV transmission but they don’t decrease the use of drugs. The homeless are a huge problem because they already have passed the point of having nothing left to lose. They still seem to get drugs and they are stuck in a hopeless cycle that they can’t get out of as long as drugs are available.

I also want to address the fact that drugs cost more to the end users because they are illegal. 88 narco terrorists are dead because the profit potential is huge. There are the producers the shippers and the importers who have bribes to pay to get their products to the distributors. Making drugs legal would make them much cheaper and the aforementioned distributors would not be using expensive drug boats. We could simply let the users stand or fall on their own choices.

I don’t truly think you did. He is literally formulating an argument that supports our position but is stating to put it into a different argument framework to win over popular support.

If his intent was to get people to answer his questions I guess it worked.
I answered them.

Is it legal? The answer is obvious...

Yes it is, but it's not the one the author thinks.

Non-unformed combatants (which would include terrorists, pirates and guerrillas, etc) are not "protected persons" under the Geneva Protocols that Dems and lib talking heads are so enamored of and therefore are subject to being killed without trial. Note, they are not U. S. Citizens and aren't within the territory of the United States and therefore, they are not subject to protection under U. S. Law either.
