Will he also crack down on the legal drugs that are killing thousands[1] each year or do they not "poison" the population?
What about alcohol which is by far the most destructive drug[2] in western societies?
For the record I think criminalizing drug use is idiotic.

- vivekd 10y agoWait, are you saying that because alcohol is legal we should also legalize other drugs. That doesn't sound like a good argument. Just because one bad thing is legal doesn't mean we have to legalize all similar bad things. Yes alcohol is bad, but due to various reasons it's embedded into our culture to such an extent that it would be hard to ban. That is not true for other recreational drugs.
