Neil and Philip Seeman's argument against ending prohibition
quotes from a Columbia University study stating "casual drug
use is dangerous, not simply because it can lead to
addiction or accidental overdoses, but because it is
harmful per se, producing worker accidents, highway
fatalities and children born with physical handicaps."

Putting aside the facts that marijuana, for instance, has no
known lethal dose and been proven to be non-addictive, why
not apply the same logic to Canada's number one casual drug
of choice, alcohol? History shows us what a great success
prohibition on that substance was.
