We have history to guide us, unlearner. I suppose you want to forget prohibition? Was it better for the general public during prohibition, or after it was repealed?
I am not interested in what Europe does or has done. Why would I concern myself with what those socialist pigs do. I can't believe that you post on this site, and would want to parallel what Europe and we do.

I am saying legalizing drugs is a very European thing to do - not good.
As I said before, the comparison between alcohol and drugs breaks down. Alcohol can be used in moderation; illegal drugs cannot.
I am not for prohibition (of alcohol) as a federal law, but there are local communities (counties) that are "dry", and it is fine for them. The commercial sale of alcohol has definitely made it much more accessible to children and teenagers who are often put at risk by it.
The same would happen if drugs were legalized.
