<p.
I personally believe they are not separate issues, that is one of my biggest issues with criminalization of dope. It is used by authority as an excuse to trample and negate our rights. I’m kind of wishing that most of the people who benefit from my argument weren’t dirty hippies, but I try to apply logic evenly to my convictions. I don’t do dope, won’t do dope, and I’ll do whatever I can to convince my kids to never do dope. But I can’t demand that it be illegal with good conscious. I believe bar owners should decide if their establishments allow smoking. I believe anyone over 18 should be able to carry a firearm and own them without government oversight or permission. I believe we should be able to buy and ride 3-wheeled ATV’s at our own risk. I also believe my neighbor should be allowed to smoke dope as long as he’s not doing it on my property or selling it to my underage children... and I don’t believe the authorities should be able to take away his children, lock him out of his house and search his home based on that fact either.
