Our grandparents must have been smarter than we are. They didn't waste time setting up alcohol courts when they realized prohibiting alcohol was causing more harm than good. They simply ended alcohol prohibition. We should do likewise because the best way of reducing the harm and heartbreak inflicted by illegal drugs on users and non-users alike is to end drug prohibition.
