Prohibition laws don't actually prevent people from using illegal drugs? What?!?

An October 2007 Zogby Poll asked "If hard drugs like Heroin and Cocaine were legalised, would you be more likely to try them?

99% answered: NO

What? You mean they're really aren't that many Americans sitting around their living rooms saying "Gosh darned it, I really wanna try that heroin. But golly gee, if only it were legal I'd go out and get me some right now."

But actually, if the point of all these prohibition laws is to win America the gold medal at the prison olympics, and/or to create a failed state in Mexico, and/or to allow local SWAT and DEA to compete over who'll be the first department to kill more dogs than Michael Vick, and/or to make a mockery of our consitutional rights and the intentions of our founding fathers...well, then, maybe they're right, and maybe I'm the one who needs to do a little soul searching.
