Yeah.. Peele has all the answers... no wait.... ariana huffington has all the answers!! Come on give it up, you know legalizing will just mean more crack heads and tweekers. why can't you admit it?? phillip moris will take over the drug trade and they can add a few hundred thousand deaths to their tobacco deaths per year. do you think you're the first person who fights for a moral cause that ends up hurting people instead of helping? idealism stems from ignorance... ! but dont worry.. it wont happen soon.

You didn't adress any of my arguments (or peele's). And no. Legalizing will not mean more crackheads or tweakers. Do you think suddenly because it's legal people are going to decide to start smoking crack? You must be smoking crack if you think that.
Try and argue all you want. The simple fact of the matter is that when substances are regulated and people don't rely on a black market, things are safer. Were cigarettes illegal, tobacco would simply become a black market in which crime would thrive around it, people would be murdered, and kids would have easier access. As it is, since tobacco is regulated, the only people it harms are those who consume it, and self harm is a right. If people choose to harme themselves with crack or heroin, at least they won't be kids. At least they'll be safer. At least diseases won't spread. At least overdoses will be less common. etc, etc...
The only argumetn prohibitionists such as yourself really have is the false claim that more people will used drugs if they are legal. This is false. Go to leap's site and check out some of the research they site, or do your own. Drug use is constant. It always has been and always will be. Trying to fight that is futile. Where there is demand, there will *always* be supply. The question is channeling that supply safely into the right hands (away from kids), and that can *only* be done if it's legal.

Just as long as they dont put high fructose corn syrup in it, its all good by me. The last thing I want is meth that tastes artificial.

Are you the guy? Seriously. If you're the one dude, you know, the one who's sitting home thinking "Damn! I'd like to smoke some crack if only it were legal!"? If you're that guy, give it up now and leave the rest of us in peace, please?
