You will find that America of the 1800's was a quite libertarian society, - drugs, prostitution, gambling were tolerated in limited red light districts all over the country."That only proves my point. In those days, the state didn't need to crack down on such things because the American people were so moral that almost no one did them. Not now, though.

You are entitled to you opinion, but if you are gonna try and make a historical statement, please try to reconcile it with actual historical fact...
