Do you have any idea the absolute mess that Meth has made of communities?

Are you aware the all time murder rate high in this country was caused by the crack epidemic? Do you think if crack had been legal that wouldn't have happened? Horseshit.

No there are no victims of drug abuse.

There are victims of murder.
There are victims of theft.
There are victims of robbery.
There are victims of assault.

There is no such thing as a victim of drug abuse. One person decided to willingly do drugs.

There are alot of "crimes" on the books that have no victim. "Sodomy" laws. Prostitution laws. Drug use is only one part of the problem.

There is no direct correlation of the "crack epidemic" causing higher murder rates. Perhaps prohibition of the substance lead to the formation of street gangs and organized crime, just like a hundred years ago when they made alcohol illegal on a whim.

If there is a market for something, someone will sell it. If it is illegal, then there will be blood spilled for it instead of it being available in a store.
