It's not about harm to the dealers it's about the harm their mass incarceration has the potential to do to society, and that it's not a effective solution. It both doesn't work, and it's threatening to kill a lot of people.

It’s a problem, but one is much more of an acute problem.

We have drug abuse, granted a problem, and mass incarceration as a response, also a problem and not helpful in resolving the drug abuse problems. I'd rather have one problem rather than the two reinforcing each other.

I’d rather risk the incarceration to not see people dying in the streets on a daily basis.

Incarceration doesn't reduce the availability usage or addiction to drugs, in fact it promotes lawlessness and violence on our streets. But now especially, mass incarceration is existentially dangerous, and our public health officials emphasize that jail leads to mass death.

I understand it’s a multi-faceted issue, but I see enough lawlessness and violence from these entrepreneurs.

Then let's create a situation where they will be held financially , and criminally responsible, given that there will be drug purveyors, might we work to make the whole system safer. Seems provably untenable to make the industry go away.

It will never go away, but it also doesn’t have to be conducted the way it is in the city.

It does not, our system of prohibition is making this significant health problem much worse. The solution however isn't to embrace the abysmal failure of policy that is prohibition.
