"Government" laws are always about persecution, no solution as Willy-D put it. We see the same racist underpinnings in the original drug laws. The first drug legislations were passed to put down certain Asian & Hispanic communities. Majorities are a tyranny in themselves if individuals in the minority do nothing to stop the advancement of power held over them. Guess what, if there were no institution claiming to poses a monopoly on violence or higher claim to each person & their property than they do, we wouldn't even need to talk about who can take what from whom. So once again the "government" has created a moral hazard which has people fighting & taking things from others. Just get the state out of the equation & people will just have to be responsible for themselves & communities. These people don't trust the "government" or politicians who they're begging to take & have ALL the guns!!! What the hell Y'all???
