Sure. The corrolary is that one shouldn't expect a lot of crime to drop if you end the war.

I'm fine with that. I used to think otherwise, and I still think it will drop somewhat, but that's not the primary reason to end the drug war.

Yeah that's all I'm saying. Libertarian party line isn't that however.

I think the reality is if better ritual tech is allowed to evolve around drug use it will get less dangerous

Yeah probably. Do you see that happening with recent cannabis legalizations?

very much not - our law actively prevents stuff like that from happening

Don't want to pester you but could you give examples of that even with cannabis legalization?

for instance - personal use (at home) is ok, but “public use” (any under-21s possibly present) is illegal

whereas most rituals are partly public (weed yoga, group runs, church, etc.)
