Anyway, back to the original topic, this is like saying the carpenter that
built the bar supports the attack & rape of women by intoxicated men (and all
other gender combinations).
I'm still considering whether or not I'd support carte blanche legalisation of
recreational drugs, but asserting that people who oppose it support terrorism
is way too big a stretch for me (though probably not for today's lawyers).
