It supports a massive enforcement and incarceration infrastructure. If drugs are legalized, think of the unemployment!
and it supports organized crime. Keeps them busy, gives them something to do other than extortion and racketerring.

You are arguing that it is worthwhile to curb civil liberties to prevent irresponsible gun ownership. How then, can you you condemn the "drug war" for doing the same thing to prevent drug abuse?

No, but 47,055 people died from drug overdoses last year, which is more than the 33,599 that died from gun violence. I think it's hypocritical to condemn the "drug war" as an assault on personal liberty while supporting gun control. If one of them is justifiable, then the other should be justifiable, since drug use is as much a problem as gun violence, if not more.

its all perspective drugs are illegal and people died, guns are legal and how many have died?
legalize drugs and the death toll goes down, tighter gun regulations and the death toll goes down.
