Drug laws are racist, many were enacted to keep the black man from rapin' white wimmen.
In all fairness, the black men ought not
be rapin' the white wimmen. Or anyone else, for that matter. Nor should men of any other shade of brown (or beige, or pink) be rapin' wimmen. Or men. Or...or anything else, really.
How about we just prohibit the whole rape thing directly, and stop beating around the bush, so to speak.
With regard to the original topic: Legalize them all, and make each and every intoxicating substance count as premeditation and an aggravating circumstance for any crime committed under the influence.
Drive home with BAC == 0.02? Fine. Kill someone with your car while at 0.02? 0.01? Murder one. Done. Make people rethink what they do while using drugs, rather than pretending to be able to make them not use drugs.
Also, for the purposes of debate, it is safe to assume that Rabbi is not going to listen to reason on this: For Rabbi, all drugs are completely, unequivocally, inescapably evil, unless they're the ones he happens to like. And he happens to like Tobacco and Alcohol. His argument is that the other drugs are illegal, QED. The fact that, were they legalized, they would no longer
be illegal, carries no weight with him, because: all drugs are completely, unequivocally, inescapably evil, unless they're the ones he happens to like.
