| Message | That is not enough. Only when every potential cause of crime is banned can we live in a crime free society! Unfortunately, this means we must ban pretty much everything and give the State totalitarian control. The masses must obey the State. |

| Message | I think if this matter is legalized you can prevent the crime rate that surrounds the consume of recreational drugs. I think if you step foward to legalize and control the matter of the called recreational drugs, the governement will have a better control on the subject, to ban, and penalize a recreational action is not the solution to avoy the criminality around it. We got to legalize and control the use os the recreational drugs, not to ban. Using an old cliché, the forrbiden fruit is the most wanted, so if we control that need, we can manage all the surrounding effect's that this matter has in our society. |
