"American's support it in overwhelming numbers and believe intervention and incareration are proper efforts against reducing drug dealing and drug abuse"

No they don't. They're passing pro-marijuana initiatives in lots of states, so your "overwhelming numbers" statement is a falsehood. 30% also believe in UFO's and Psychic experiences anyway, I thought we were debating the merits of drug legalization.

Name one state, that has legalized marijuana, cocaine, heroin and other illicit drugs for use by the general population.

Name one state, that has completely decriminalized marijuana, cocaine, heroin and other illicit drugs to apply to the general population.

I'm not talking about some liberal/libertarian enclave in a socialist town or city either. I'm talking about a whole state. Show me one.

The numbers are proof positive. Look at the Pew Research Report from August 2001. 90% of American's consider drug use, a crisis or serious problem. 86% of American's believe, people have no right to do illicit drugs, even if it doesn't hurt someone else. Wake up.

Marijuana, cocaine, heroin and the other illicit drugs in America will remain illegal. Those are the facts.
