      Consider the general group of people we'll call "thrillseekers". We define thrillseekers as the union of "pot smokers" and "chokers". Therefore any thrillseeker is either a pot smoker, a choker, or both.

      Now consider two scenarios: pot being legal, and pot being illegal. I'll make 4 statements, and Xei can tell me which ones are wrong and give evidence/reasoning.

      1) pot is legal

      a) some chokers switch to pot
      b) almost no pot users switch to choking

      2) pot is illegal

      a) almost no chokers switch to pot
      b) some pot users switch to choking

      If these 4 statements are true, then my statement that "prohibition causes more choking games" is true. So which of the 4 statements is false, and why? I await your response, Xei.

      Nice try, but putting something in quotation marks doesn't make it true that you actually said it. What you actually said of this phenomenon was, "This is what happens when you make marijuana illegal." The implication of this statement is that the phenomenon is solely, rather than partially, caused by making pot illegal. If you also believed that this happens when you don't make marijuana illegal then your statement would have been meaningless; I'm taking the liberty of assuming you wouldn't write a tautological post.

      I don't disagree with "prohibition causes more choking games". Neither, I hasten to point out, do I disagree with "prohibiting minors from driving causes more bathtub deaths".
