True, that tobacco and alcohol are also dangerous, possibly more than marijuana. But marijuana still has side affects (1). Yes, I know that prohibition led to organized crime, so even though I don't think prohibition wasn't that bad of an idea, it wouldn't pass legally. Also, it would require massive amounts of police funding and corruption control to prevent lots of problems. Also the loss of tax revenue from alcohol taxes. Therefore, prohibition won't come back :(. But, I don't want to legalize even more drugs personally, that is why I oppose marijuana legalization recreationally. But, I would be ok if with legalizing marijuana, we cracked down harder or more dangerous drugs, like cocaine, meth and heroin. I know we already have harsh penalties, but maybe they can get a bit more harsh.
Anyways, the wrap up my position on drugs is we need more restrictions or taxes on tobacco and alcohol, and I oppose legalization of marijuana. But, I guess if marijuana legalization did happen, as it likely will since my position isn't that popular, I would push for high taxes, public banning of it and other restrictions. The idea of marijuana free counties, like dry counties(which still exist in some places), would be good too.

Thank you for your response.
As I mentioned, I support many common-sense gun control measures. On a federal level, this includes the Federal Assault Weapons Ban. I agree that bump stocks are a trickier issue, but ultimately I believe it is not an effective solution to the problem. There are a number of guides, videos, and even a book on Amazon that show how to convert a semi-automatic weapon to an automatic. Banning bump stocks will only make it slightly more difficult to procure an 'automatic' weapon, and those committed to getting one will be able to. I only support the FAWB because I believe it made a meaningful difference in the availability of assault weapons.
I do believe that scopes and silencers are useful tools, especially the latter as they are a good, convenient way for responsible gun owners to protect their ears (when used in tandem with earplugs of course.)
