Because obviously people buying a few pills of ecstasy or a tab of LSD are a serious danger to society and should be taken of the streets. /s

[mfoy_]

Because the police will totally arrest every single user and not focus on the high-volume buyers / sellers. /s

[tgragnato]

I do not think it's really that clear.

Sometimes the state apparatus is precisely the one committing the most heinous crimes. (with impunity!)

This is a confusing statement since you /s

You don't need a address to send mail - sellers.

Personal use can be huge amounts - buyers

I can't see many dealers using dark markets above plausible personal use amounts since you get caught importing dealable quantities you are screwed, dark market or not (And the mail system will get a % of buyers). You might have a $1000 per week habit or be a $1000 per week dealer. Who's to say?

Until you look at an officer the wrong way. Or their friend. Or someone else with the ear of the boys in blue.

Because obviously it's impossible to express that one party might have viewed an outcome as favorable without agreeing with that view. /s

[forgotpwtomain]

Well given that this party is funded by taxpayers, for the purported benefit of said taxpayers and their society; I do think its problematic that said party would hold such a view.

Not all clients were end-consumers.

You could also order kilograms there.

Obviously.

They fund the ones supplying those drugs which involves a significant harm to society. Just look at people who are unwilling participants in the drug trade or those who receive funds from selling drugs to sell other things such as weapons or even humans.

(Yes, I realize legalizing local drug production and distribution would undercut the market, which is one reason why I am for legalization. But that does not excuse supporting the current cartels.)

[mikeash]

I'm aware of the huge criminal activity that goes along with drugs like cocaine, but are ecstasy and LSD makers in the same category?

[z3phyr]

People under influence do indeed pose danger to other people. Even the influence of alcohol is potentially dangerous in certain situations leading to incidents ranging from hit and run to domestic violence.

[scotty79]

Even alcohol? Alcohol is the most endangering drug. Because of wide spread use (no competition because in many places it's the only legal drug), addictiveness, toxicity and intrinsic nastiness of influence it has on some users.

[vkou]

People with _______ pose a danger to other people. It is incredibly hypocritical to come down on someone for consuming LSD in their own home, but not on someone getting pissed drunk in their own home. Tens of thousands of people are killed by people under the influence of alcohol in the United States. How many people are killed by people under the influence of LSD?

(I have never used drugs, other then alcohol.)
