Really ? You don't seriously believe that do you ? Let's say for arguments sake drugs are legalized, government would demand a heavy levy in taxes, same as with ciggies & booze. So what does Joe & Josephina Public do, speak to the fella down the market / Pub who's bringing in kit from the "continent" because it's cheaper & there's a willing market, plus he's making a tidy profit. So his profit margin is maximized guess what he'll do, yep, cut it with other she-ite !

Druggies keeling over & dying up some filthy squatt, backstreet or even some penthouse because they wanted their fix on the cheap & someone was out to make a profit ! Where's the difference ? Drugs are illegal for a reason & that my friend is the B-all & End-all of it.
