Do you know anybody that drinks alcohol and didn't start before that age?

What does this have to do with the legalization of drugs?

In the US, we had drug prevention programs and a heavy push on just say no. Guess what? Kids still did drugs but they snuck around to do it. We had police do a sweep through the high schools in my area and arrest several kids. Imagine how those arrest messed up those kids lives. That was in the 80's. The fact that drugs were illegal didn't keep kids from risking their future just so they could get high.

If drugs were legal, it would be easier to make certain that vulnerable individuals received help without shame. Anyone who sold to an underage individual could get arrested or fined heavily just like we do with with alcohol now.
