Potheads suffer "denial." In such a state, reason and logic are useless.

The drug warriors (like you, for instance) do not use reason or logic in their arguments. Instead they prefer to respond to logic with emotionally based attacks, using many of the same arguments as the gun-grabbers.

They refuse to look at the issue from a rational point of view and rely on government propaganda and disinformation.

Add to that the apparent disdain for conservative principles that most of them seem to share, such as individual responsibility and smaller government. The drug warriors have no concept of freedom and individual rights, rather they believe that the "rights of society" trumps individual rights.

It makes one wonder why they are even on a conservative forum.

"... such as individual responsibility and smaller government.

Those phrases roll off your keyboard as though those conditions exist. They don't and you know it.

Yet you're perfectly willing to call for the legalization of recreational drugs into a society supported by a large, nanny state government where there is no such thing as personal responsibility anymore.

FIRST, bring those back, THEN we can discuss the legalization of drugs. Otherwise you're just compounding the problem.
