Correct, illegal drug use is a crime because it is "forcing" normal people to deal and suffer with death, poverty, social costs associated with a mutant illegal drug culture and addicts. It destroys families and societies. There is no up side to it. You have to be a total moron to do illegal drugs.

We agree on that "forced" issue for sure, thanks for the assistance.

Please substitute the word "alcohol" for the words "illegal drug", and then explain to me why I can buy a Coors at my local corner store,

illegal drug use [...] is "forcing" normal people to deal and suffer with death,

No more than tobacco (which leads to early death) is "forcing" people to deal and suffer with death. Should tobacco be banned?

poverty, social costs

What forces people to deal with these is welfarist policies; let's fight those violations of rights, instead of using them as excuses for further violations of rights.
