Homocide is certainly not equivalent to illegal drug use, but laws against either one are "prohibitions", which you seemed determined to eliminate. Is that because you just want to get high, or are you an anarchist? I'm not judging - anarchists can be pretty entertaining.
On the second subject, while personally I find the practice repugnant, there are many pedophiles that believe that their practices should be decriminalized, and it's persons like YOU that are the close minded hypocrites.
It's no secret that Pedophiles have argued that their activities have a positive effect on children - it's just that phony studies by psychologists and psychiatrists (you know, the same people that say marijuana is a "gateway drug") cause discrimination against their activities. We all know that psychologists aren't real scientists anyway, right?
Besides, just as there were no marijuana laws at the founding of the United States, children at that same time were legally considered PROPERTY. It was only the rise of what you and your friends would call "Nanny State Laws" during the late 19th and early 20th centuries that made pedophilia a crime against a person. So if we just go back to the good old days, like you and your friends want, it's "no harm, no foul", right?
LOL, so you see, I'm not really that close minded after all!
Although I admit that I wouldn't want to live anywhere near a place that decriminalized pedophilia, I'm willing to apply your clear thinking ability and be OK with it if pedophilia is legalized in the community where you and your family live.

That’s a silly conflation that could only be the product of a simple and weak mind.
If you don’t have the horsepower to understand the context of the statement, you’d do well to shut up and quit looking stupid.

studies by psychologists and psychiatrists (you know, the same people that say marijuana is a "gateway drug") No, they don't - the "gateway effect" is purely a fabrication of prohibitionists.
