I find it perplexing anyone thinks legalized recreational substance use would actually cause more harm than drug enforcement does, even aside from the metaphysical harm of having your freedom reduced.&lt;p&gt;It is as if the harm inherent in law enforcement doesn&amp;#x27;t count, as if there are kinds of acceptable and unacceptable violence.
