gollark: Probably. Governments just love illegalizing things for bad reasons.
gollark: Banning alcohol was tried and failed because of that. Banning weed... happened, seemingly hasn't prevented people getting/using it anyway (but resulted in loads of people pointlessly going to prison), and is beginning to be reverted.

gollark: It's not a justification. It's a reason.
gollark: Because alcohol is easier to make (I think) and more ingrained in our culture.
