How can you say you're against minors smoking when you put on that Rally every year? |

We do program for an older generation (i.e, ourselves) in our band and speaker selections, but minors show up anyway. It is true that with sufficiently dreary programming we could empty the Common of all but the most zealous, but we are reluctant to do that. The Drug War targets young people in two ways: first by channeling the distribution of drugs into the hands of people who have no qualms about whom they sell to, and then by subjecting kids to random but traumatic arrests and surveillance regimes that erode their rights and jeopardize their achievements. This is too much their fight for us to want to keep them from it.
