Where does this concept of Legalize Drugs=No Crime. Did anybody watch that
movie "GOOD FELLAS", supposedly based on a true story? Even if it wasn't,
the concept is real. I am not talking about Ray Liotta's drug dealings
toward the end of the movie either. The first part, where they stole the
cigarette trucks to resale them. CRIME!!! It happens whether it's legal
or not. People sell cigarettes to minors, that is a crime, kids drinking
under the legal age, that is a crime. Anyway, I feel that no matter how
you look at it, there will always be crime, legal or not.
