>So you haven't been on here harping about the bad old gub-mint putting people in jail for other drugs - right?

Putting drug users in jail instead of addressing it as a medical problem is not the same topic as legalizing marijuana.
What you said was this "....How many people die or are permanently ruined from overdoses of currently illegal drugs per year Victor? You know, the drugs you want to be legal...." - and since the drug I want legal is marijuana the answer is zero.
