Trust me, I get it. You are totally happy with Big Brother knocking at your door and telling you what you can and cannot plant and grow.

When enough people grow and consume said plant, it impacts my quality of life in numerous ways. I live on the outskirts of a high drug area. Drugs are all over the community and addicts have a blast radius that impacts a lot more than even their immediate families. Handicapping the ability of people to access those substances improves the quality of life for everyone.

If you define freedom by the ability to get yourself stoned legally, you've completely missed the point. You're not free. You're a slave to the endorphin rush.

Wow, what a load of BS. You got the logical fallacy disease in a bad way lol.

Individual liberty is about being FREE. It’s about being free to decide for yourself how you want to live you life, period. If that means you want to drink 20 cups of coffee a day & you can afford it, have at it. Same with cannabis.

You pro-nanny-staters are in the wrong forum, IMO.
