would eliminate the dangers associated with its underworld existence.
Examples of dangers include gang and criminal activity, risky behavior
on the part of users, support for terrorist activities, and MONEY

debate the legalization of drugs. Please make sure you keep your
answers on the topic of problems and issues.)?
