How in hell can you rationalize that the crime rate will fall if drugs are legalized?

Here in Colorado that is exactly what happened. The black market cannot compete with the free market. The cartels left because people grow their own, or buy at legal grow shops.

There is still a “black market” for drugs regardless if pot was legalized. You still have crack, meth, heroin, cocaine, krokodil, etc that is ready and waiting to hook those potheads who seek a “better high”.
