If someone causes harm to you or your property by engaging in inherently dangerous activities in your proximity, he deserves a very stiff legal penalty, not to mention strict civil liability, i.e., without consideration for level of care exercised. Like I said before, this is a different category of discussion from drug legalization. It belongs in the same category with someone manufacturing TNT in their basement, or operating a private outdoor big cat zoo in their yard.
