Nah - gotta be Carol.
My whole take on most drugs is to legalize the lot and then ostracize them like smoking. Kids still smoke, sure, but how many pick it up once they are of the legal age? There's a million ways legalization could go wrong but if it takes money away from dealers then that will have a straight knockon effect on crime and corruption. Sure, some career criminals will find other rackets to go onto but I can't see how it'll create a worse situation than it is at present.
Besides, whilst alcohol and smoking is legal (and there's no way either is ever gonna be outlawed), what's the point in saying weed and pills should be illegal. I dunno, fuck it, people should be able to work this sorta stuff out for themselves.
