Does Prohibition Cause Increases in Certain Activities?

Certain substances have been show to have significant usage increases after their prohibition in varying cultures historically, so if "more gun freedom would deter violent crime and drug legalization would allow people to get treated, do you think legalizing prostitution and etc would diminish sex crimes?" There is an interesting discussion thread over at r/Libertarian reddit on this very topic right now. Given the reality of unintended consequences of interventionist policies, it's worth diving into the discussions to debate statism with statists.
