Good! It’s not a real crime like murder or whatever, mind your business!

I’m sure that’s a real metaphor or whatever but I am not following what you are trying to say

I think the implication is that some laws are allowed to be broken as they aren't as bad as the more serious laws?

As we have domesticated house cats I can only read the metaphor as being that "not all cats are lions. For the cats which aren't lions, these are perfectly safe. Drug abuse isn't a more dangerous crime like murder therefore it is safe".

The great thing about showing up and posting vague bullshit is that people can twist it to mean whatever they want and the person posting has no responsibility over those interpretations as they have no spine.

Rayquaza?

Weirdly enough, Rayquazza would count as a serpent. The term Serpent is often used more broadly in literature, mythology, and symbolism to refer to a variety of snake-like creatures, both real and imagined.
