What about the banning of the soon to be eliminated power walls or the banning of cigarette sales in drug stores? Or the ongoing banning of the sale cigarette to minors? You're going to tell me the govt isn't trying to eliminate smoking?

Eliminating places where people can smoke is intended to eliminate second hand smoke. It also helps to eliminate smoking in general as people get fed up with having no places to light up.

Well... you said it would be hypocritical for the government to legalize weed because alcohol/toboacco is already legal. Which doesn't make any sense to me... the current situation is hypocritical (allowing one drug while not allowing the other).
So you want your govt to be supporting more harmfull products? Makes no sense to me.
