What does that mean?


Do you think that drugs should be legal or illegal?

Really, zero opinion?



So if tomorrow the government decided to de-criminalize possession of crack cocaine, you'd be ok with it?

Fascinating.



So if possession was no longer a crime, then you wouldn't care about the folks that getting arrested for dealing swinging through the revolving door of justice, because they wouldn't be a problem to society any longer?

If it’s not a crime, why would they be arrested?

Of course, they wouldn't.


You had stated having an issue with dealers swinging through the revolving doors of justice.


But your only issue was because it was deemed illegal, not because of the actual crime that they committed?



Is that an overarching sentiment that you have, or is it specific to this particular crime?


In other words, if any currently criminal act is decriminalized by the government, are you ok with it? Or just drug related ones?

Jail is really the only fix unless you have money for some live in rehab. Everything else is not going to work.

If it’s not a crime they won’t swing through the doors as they won’t get arrested.

If it’s not illegal then no crime.

Sure, if it’s decriminalized. No crime no foul
