Just like the “War On Drugs” worked; Drugs won!

Okay, real question, if prohibition on drugs doesn't matter, why all the hubbub about states legalizing weed years back? "Prohibition doesn't work, anyway," so who cares?

[–] W98BSoD@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 6 hours ago

I think the hubbub was because the states were legalizing something illegal at the federal level and that wasn’t a precedent that had been set yet.
