Don't be obtuse you moron, you don't regulate demand. Saying something is a demand problem doesn't imply you regulate demand.
You said it was a demand problem. Explain how that could be regulated.Yeah. It's not like there are any examples of regulating controlled substances

Why regulate supply if it's not a supply problem?
That's correct.
Sounds like you and Philo need to have a meeting.
No need. We're on the same page.
Not according to the quotes I just showed you.
Philo: regulate/control drug supply
Th'Pussy: It's not a supply problem
Saying something is a demand problem doesn't mean you dont regulate the supply to address the problem.
Cute name calling tho.
So why did you say it's a demand problem if you want to address the supply? Remember the policing comment?
i think i'm missing the funny part
Yeah. Real funny
i think DMC needs to take his time and understand these two statements
That's fine if I was saying Th'Pussy was being inconsistent, but I said his take and yours were not aligned. You ignored your comment about controlling the supply.
A: "My kid has a bag of crystal meth, he says he got it from the guy next door, so I'm going to have him arrested"
B: "well the problem is your kid wanted it, not that the guy supplied it"
A: "how do I fix this?"
B: "Have the guy next door arrested"
A: "I thought you just said that wasn't the problem"
B: "No, your kid is the problem, but you can fix your kid by having the guy next door arrested"
See how stupid that is? Don't say the supply isn't the problem then say you need to regulate the supply.
So tell me, Philo, how do you A) regulate the supply without arresting people and B) how does regulating the supply fix the demand issue unless you're flooding the market with drugs?
You two are really between a rock and a hard place now. The compelling evidence of that is in your responses, I didn't have to say anything.
A) how many people nowadays get arrested for illegally supplying alcohol? it's a non-existant problem when it is legalized, even if it is controlled and regulated
B) the demand problem is not likely to be fixed by any sort of regulation. you can't pass a law that says "you aren't allowed to desire marijuana." the better way to get people out of self destructive drug habits is through education and rehabilitation, rather than finding a crackhead and throwing him in a cell for a few years
the purpose behind decriminalizing drugs isn't to pretend like the problem doesn't exist (in response to your "legalize everything so there's no more crime lulz" point). it's to get rid of a stupid prohibition system that fosters the growth of street crime and violence.
the root problem isn't going to be solved with regulation, but we can at least remove some of the stupid side effects caused by our current approach to tackling the problem
You didn't answer either question.
Explain how regulating the supply will address the demand or just say it won't. We both know the answer.
Then explain how regulation of the supply was even suggested as some sort of demand fix.
If you two would stop trying to win and talk like you got some ing sense this could be over in just a couple posts.
i never made that claim. the root problem is certainly a demand problem. that isn't going to be solved with regulation, imo, and certainly not with criminalization.
we can however, regulate the supply which can at least remove some of the side effects that have been fostered by our current flawed attempt at solving the root problem
You supported it. Now you're being a pussy.
no. you just create false dichotomies and then mock people for not picking one of the sides you've presented
Nobody said regulating supply will address demand.
How is this any different than this:
"Explain how regulating the supply will address the demand." -me
I'd be shocked if you ever took a position on anything. You always look for a way to weasel out of some support or shade you throw.
Thanks man I will analize this and respond. GoodAlabama's prisons now housed 28,000 prisoners, more than doubling the designed capacity. The health of inmates cannot be safeguarded and infectious diseases including tuberculosis and dermatosis were easily transmitted from one to another. (apr.org, December 16, 2016) The website of Washington Post reported on November 28, 2016 that two policemen were imprisoned for beating a mentally-ill inmate and forging records to cover up their prisoner abuse (www.washingtonpost.com, November 28, 2016). According to a report of the Washington Post website on December 19, 2016, guards at the Los Angeles County Sherriff's Department had beaten and abused in mates. Its former head thwarted a federal investigation into the beatings and other abuses at the Los Angeles County jail system he ran. The probe led to convictions of 20 members of the Sheriff's department (www.washingtonpost.com, December 19, 2016). The Washington Post reported on its website on December 2, 2016 that a guard at New York City's jail complex Rikers Island "savagely" kicked an ailing inmate to death (www.washingtonpost.com, December 2, 2016).
