It makes our point exactly. People will get drugs whether illegal or not, however they will hide it when they have a problem due to risk of deeper trouble and having their lives ruined by legal issues for ingesting a substance. You don't have to be "for" a particular drug to be against the sham that is the drug war.

Nah lets leave it all illegal so the Government and Law enforcement have more reasons to shit on our rights using drugs as their excuse to bypass probable cause. The man just died.. Heroin is currently illegal.. How exactly did this protect him? Oh cause he was famous he was able to get it right? Oh wait nope.. it is one of the cheapest most easily available drugs..., and if you had watched the video above ADG posted it explains that Hoffman was clean for 23 years until he started up again after being given prescription pain killers.... FD fucking A approved and that is what led him back to Heroin. Foolish drug war fuckin fanboys.
So you are saying there would be the same amount of people doing heroine if it was legal compared to when it is illegal?
You use broken logic by saying that "people die when it is illegal" not understanding that this number would be far more greater if it was legal.
It's like saying - murderers kill people when it is illegal so no point of not making it legal. As if the number of murders would not increase
My point is - if it was legal we would have way more deaths.
