Do you mean because it's not a true statement?

Unfortunately for your ego it is a true statement.

It honestly doesn't matter to me what a vile, outdated man thinks.

I guess so.

To me, I find 7 pages of nasty 'bitch' like behavior worse than calling it out. But, tis how the world works.

Elimination of the violence associated with the black market will save how many lives you think.

I haven't acted like a bitch in this thread I'm sure. I know I haven't, because I'm not a bitch. When you resort to personal attacks because you disagree with someone you become a bitch.

I want to use heroin, but I don't because it's illegal. If it was legal, I would totally dive head first into heroin.

I understand that argument. However I still think violence and theft will increase. IMO addiction would increase. Addicts will do anything to feed their habit and that rarely includes getting a job to pay for it. They lie cheat steal and murder if they have to. That's the crime that will increase. Even if the black market disappears.

You used a quote of mine that was directed at Russian and called it bitchmode.

I replied that I find 7 pages of behaving vile to be worse than calling it out.

The fact that you thought I was talking about you is insightful.

Probably the worst violent crime problem we have in the US deals with the black market for drugs.

Go back and look at prohibition. People felt prohibition would lower crime, and empty the jails it did just the opposite.
