Why, indeed?

Punish any crimes committed under the influence of drugs. But stop the foolish, freedom-threatening attempts to ban the drugs, themselves.

Yes. It means that many people will throw away their lives. So be it.

You know they only rationalized it once someone came up with projections on how much more taxes they would collect...

Yes we need a Nanny State to protect us from ourselves. No knocks, asset forfeiture, and the militarization of local police is a small price to pay. No?

Nobody should face a prison sentence for possessing the wrong plant, medicine, or recreational substance.

Authoritarians flourish on the left and right sides of the political spectrum.

All too often, it just seems to me like a pissing contest over whose flavor of Tyranny will prevail.

No thanks. I'll take big, scary, challenging, imperfect Freedom, warts and all...
