I understand but look. Alcohol is legal. Drunk drivers kill tons of people on the roads every day. So why is it not ilegal? Because MOST poeple are responsible with it, and those who aren't will pay for it one way or another. But you may be right, I may change my mind :)

Does the fact that drugs are illegal decrease their chances of useing them? I don't know, I mean if I wanted to I could go out and get all those drugs you mentioned, illegal or not. But I don't want to, even if they WERE I wouldn't want to. I think that you probably wouldn't either. I know you say you might, but I know you and the example you'd want to set for her, but hey if they were legal who would care? And look there would be laws against doing that kind of stupid shit. And in no way would it be MANDATORY for all states to make it legal. It would be their own choice. They all would vote on it and decide for themselves.

Yes I know. That's why you teach your children right from wrong right? I mean there was a guy JUST TODAY I found out, he killed his own daughter while driving drunk. I knew this guy I worked with him. He had his two children in the car and he fliped his truck and killed his seven-year-old daughter. Well do you think if alcohol were illegal he wouldn't have killed her? Probably not. He would have gone to get his booze some other time. But the shit is still legal ain't it? But I totally understand your point
