It's amazing how those who claim that libertarians represent more than anti-drug law idiots can't see that their own integrity goes up in smoke when their golden calf of marijuana is ridiculed.

Boy, you nailed it there. Libertaians are against taxes, government programs and socialism until the discussion turns to drug legalization. Then suddenly they are all in favor of the increased revenue that will be produced by taxing the drugs, an increase in drug rehab programs and socialized medicine to handle the increases in overdoses that will result from legalized drug use.

Leaving aside your total misreading and ignorance of libertarian doctrine and approaches to drug legalization, what proof do you have that legalization would lead to increased overdoses? Do you even know how many people die from overdoses? Do you know how many of those people were dealt impure drugs? Do you know why dealers deal impure drugs?
