Some perspective: in 2018 I got arrested for the 6th time in 3 months for violating my stay away. I was wearing an ankle monitor. I had 5 open cases for non violent charges. The cops said I'd probably be a "let go". I spent nearly 3 months in custody.
If we legalized drugs last week this violent dealer would have been replaced with peaceful drug wholesellers interested in thier customers long term business and their reputation. It might have stopped this is what I am saying.

The blame for this isn't on the "failed war on drugs". This is an individual who has repeatedly committed crimes that have resulted in zero repercussions. He wasn't moved from society to as punishment or for rehabilitation - and now 2 women are dead. We deserve better than this.

Like you said, legalization "might" have kept those women alive. I can think of a couple solutions that would 100% work. No cars would have been stolen, No armed robberies, No dead ladies. 1) Bullet to the head, or 2) Leave forever & If you come back, we go with option one.

Drugs are in some way “legalized” because dealers can deal ad infinitum with zero consequences! How much more “legal” does it need to be?? Also you’re assuming that legalizing drugs means there won’t be other violent crimes. If so, i have a bridge to sell you...

Actually I am assuming that prohibition promotes lawlessness addiction and overdose. It funds criminal lifestyles like these rather than tolerate otherwise law abiding intoxicant salesman.
