Dear CJdebator,
I think you intended the reasoning for your 1st assertion to be about the Prohibition of Alcohol (not drugs). In 1920, the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was passed. It banned the manufacture, transportation, and sale of alcohol. It ushered in a period in American history known as Prohibition which led DIRECTLY to:
1.) the increase of the illegal production and sale of liquor (known as “bootlegging”)
2.) the proliferation of speakeasies (illegal drinking spots)
3.) the rise in Organized Crime and gang violence
By 1933, ONLY 13 years later, Americans grew to despise what Prohibition was doing to the country, so Congress proposed the 21st Amendment to the Constitution which made alcohol legal again.
If we don't want history to repeat itself again, then cigarettes should not be made illegal!
