Most charitys are goverment fundedThey shouldn't be.
I can't help but have sympathy for the parents of a young person who might end up dead as a result of the perils of narcotics.
I thought it was liberals who held that "sympathy" trumps rights, such as sympathy for the parents of a young person who might end up dead as a result of the perils of handguns.
what system of dispersal would take it's place?
As I say in post 61, the same sort of system that disperses the deadly addictive drug alcohol.

No,sympathy does not trump rights,but laws of this country must be rooted in common sense.Narcotics kill far more people than guns.Facilitating personal freedoms is obviously a good intention,but lets do it without ending up with millions of addicts and casualties.

That would mean state control as well as private companys promoting use,and producing the product.You talk about citizens rights to be free from state controls in one sentence,and then advocate state controls in the next.
