That stigma would dissipate with legalizaton.

Why do you think that? Are you tempted to go eat rat poisoning now? It's legal, yet you don't do it. Why?

I explained why drug use in the general law-abiding population would increase if they were legal... in two different posts. Do you still have that question of me now, or have you read those and disagree?

I don't eat rat poison because it isn't rumored to make me feel good. People use drugs because they are fun to use, even if they are harmful. There are a lot of drugs that more people might use if they were more legitimate. Many of the same people who see no wrong in getting drunk for fun now. Many of my friends, but my friends are aging out of that now. The younger set would grow up with less stigma attached to their use.
