The point is that people who steal to fund their drug habit aren't suddenly going to have money to buy just because it's legalized. In fact, as CA shows us, legal sources are more expensive.
See, you got defensive for no reason. We were discussing the stupid rationales liberals came up with to legalize pot when in reality most people would be okay with legalizing it for recreational use as long as there were common sense regulations and enforcement in place, like they do with cigarettes and alcohol.
The biggest problem, imo, is that the Left doesn't know how to take yes for an answer. You go, "Sure, let's legalize pot," and they go, "Well what about heroin? And cocaine? And and and...?" Now, I couldn't care less what people want to kill themselves with, I just don't want to pay for it in any way. I don't want to be robbed by addicts, and I don't want to subsidize it with my tax dollars. I also don't want to pay for their rehab or narcan or whatever. If Tunnels to Towers has to take up a collection, the drug addict/OD people should have to as well instead of tax payers having to pay for it.
