Do you honestly think there'd be no gangs or crime with drug laws repealed? I think the death rates would increase incredibly from driving accidents and overdose.

I also lost a relative to drug crime. Real nasty business to support, which apparently a lot of people have no problem with.

I never met any of my grandfathers because they were both alcoholics and left my grandmothers with 5 kids to fend for themselves during the 30's - 40's. I also lost 2 uncles from liver cancer and a brother-in-law in an accident because of drinking alcohol. I am still waiting for some serious discussion about making alcohol illegal.
