Nuremberg....what a jacka$$$
It's definition...too simple for your narrow mind?

Why not answer the questions instead of trying your usual diversion tactics.

Quoted from CICERO

Yes WHY, It's a victimless crime. They aren't hurting you. "Because consuming drugs does not hurt anybody but the consumer"
Yes Why should someone be disciplined if they are doing something that only hurts themselves? Why would you infringe on their rights to do something that doesn't hurt anyone else except them?
No Not a crime but you would still discipline them. They did nothing wrong according to your way of thinking, yet
you will punish them....
No Not a crime? Really? If your child overdosed on those drugs and died, you might feel differently!

If you come home and find your daughter passed out drunk with 12 empty Budweiser commemorative  memorial day cans scattered around the house, and she was impregnated from a date rape while she was passed out - is Anheuser Bucsh that brewed, marketed, and distributed the alcohol a criminal?

Quoted from CICERO

I didn't answer because I was posting while you posted the question jacka$$.  

Not a diversionary tactic.  It was an example of a democratic society in both Germany and America that criminalized human behavior that had no victim.  Whether it's the Nuremberg laws(Which prohibited the marriage of Jews and German as well as other discriminatory acts) or the Fugitive Slave Act(Which required citizens turn in a runaway slave to to the government).

You are quick to call a drug dealer a criminal, even though his crime is to provide goods to a person that chooses to put it into their body.  You disagree with their choice, so you criminalize it.

It is more tyranny of the majority, where the little tyrants in society think they have the right to criminalize activities of individuals that have no victim.  

Quoted from joebxr

Your beer analogy is ridiculous BS and you know it. But I'll play your stupid game.
BUD is not culpable in this case. But if the guy that raped her and got her drunk brought the beer,
HE is culpable, and has committed several crimes.
If the daughter is under age then he has provided alcohol to a minor. and that carries several charges.
If she is under age and raped, that carries several charges.
If she is not under age she is still raped and taken advantage of, so he is still facing several charges.
Under those scenarios, let me make this clear so you might possibly comprehend,
HE IS THE CULPABLE PARTY not the manufacturer of the beverage.
HE being the person that supplied the beer, just like a HE that sells or provided
drugs to the child snorting the coke!!!!! Criminals because they performed CRIMINAL ACTS!!!!
You get it yet?   Probably not!

Now have fun with your diversionary spin!

Quoted from Ididntdoit

What about the fact that drug users enable dealers who may be likely to harm or kill another person in order to protect their territory?

Or users who drive and harm or kill another?

Or users that neglect their offspring due to addiction?

Or users that steal to maintain their habits?

Or users that use their "benefits" to purchase drugs?

Or users  that attend treatment that is paid for by the taxpayer?

These are just a few examples. To say that drug use and drug dealing is victimless is not true.

Quoted from Ididntdoit

Question- I'd like to know why some of you believe drug dealing/use is a victimless crime?  

Quoted from joebxr

crime
    illegal act: an action prohibited by law or a failure to act as required by law
    illegal activity: activity that involves breaking the law
    immoral act: an act considered morally wrong
Simple enough, but difficult for some to accept because once again
it doesn't allow them to try and advance their personal agendas
and biased hatred!

Quoted from joebxr

So you come home early one day and find your daughter or son snorting coke.....
Do you get mad or angry?  If so, WHY?
Does your child face discipline from you? WHY?
Are they committing a crime in your eyes?
Did the person that gave them the drugs or sold them the drugs commit a crime
in your opinion?

Quoted from Ididntdoit

But I am for legalizing marijuana. I'm not a user but to spend millions upon millions to fight marijuana use/dealing is stupid.  

Quoted from Libertarian4life

You make these statements, which are a complete and utter false premise, based
on your ignorant assertion that legal equals moral, and illegal equals immoral.

Freedom and liberty are not immoral ideas.

Laws that enslave people are immoral laws.

CRIME
A crime is a wrongdoing classified by the state or Congress as a felony or misdemeanor.

A crime is an offence against a public law. This word, in its most general sense, includes all offences, but in its more limited sense is confined to felony.

The term offence may be considered as having the same meaning, but is usually understood to be a crime not indictable but punishable, summarily or by the forfeiture of a penalty.

Felony. A felony is a serious crime punishable by at least one year in prison. Some family law felonies include kidnapping and custodial interference (in some states).

People convicted of felonies lose certain rights, such as the right to vote or hold public office. During the term of sentence, the convicted person may also be prohibited from making contracts, marrying, suing or keeping certain professional licenses. Upon release from prison, the convict may also be required to register with the police.

Misdemeanor. A misdemeanor is a crime for which the punishment is usually a fine and/or up to one year in a county jail. Often a crime which is a misdemeanor for the first offense becomes a felony for repeated offenses. All crimes that are not felonies are misdemeanors.

Crimes are defined and punished by statutes and by the common law. Most common law offences are as well known and as precisely ascertained as those which are defined by statutes; yet, from the difficulty of exactly defining and describing every act which ought to be punished, the vital and preserving principle has been adopted; that all immoral acts which tend to the prejudice of the community are punishable by courts of justice.

Crimes are 'mala in se,' or bad in themselves, and these include all offences against the moral law; or they are 'mala prohibita,' bad because prohibited, as being against sound policy which, unless prohibited, would be innocent or indifferent. Crimes may be classed into such as affect:

Misprision of felonies. 10. Oppression. 11. Extortion. 12. Suppressing evidence. 13. Negligence or misconduct in inferior officers. 14. Obstructing legal process. 15. Embracery.

- 5. Public Peace: 1. Challenges to fight a duel. 2. Riots, routs and unlawful assemblies. 3. Affrays. 4. Libels.

- 6. Public Trade: 1. Cheats. 2. Forestalling. S. Regrating. 4. Engrossing. 5. Monopolies.

- 7. Chastity: 1. Sodomy. 2. Adultery. 3. Incest. 4. Bigamy. 5. Fornication.

- 8. Decency And Morality: 1. Public indecency. 2. Drunkenness. 3. Violatiug the grave.

- 9. Public Police And Economy: 1. Common nuisances. 2. Keeping disorderly houses and bawdy houses. 3. Idleness, vagrancy, and beggary.
