I am not advocating legalizing copyright infringement.  In fact I 
personally own copyrights.

But leaving p2p networking technologies in place is not "legalizing" 
anything.  You police what is shared, not the method by which it is 
shared.

Driving up to someone's house and delivering a package isn't inherently 
illegal.

Driving up to someone's house and delivering illegal drugs is.  But it's 
not the driving up and delivering that's illegal, it's the content that 
is being delivered that is illegal.

Or would you also advocate that people taking packages to other people's 
houses should also be made illegal?
