Who owns the body of the guy driving 120mph on highway? If you do not think there are and should be limits then you are insane.

The State's only legitimate function is to protect freedom and adjudicate and punish those who infringe on an individual's freedom; I don't think I've heard a principled libertarian argue against a speed limit. Or even laws prohibiting intoxicated driving. People own their own body, but as I own mine, others don't have the right to put my body under undue risk of their behavior.

Libertardians think pedophilia and kids using crack while hooking is just fine and dandy

They are not normal in the head

I can think of no greater danger to our society than to allow someone's personal freedom to use dangerous drugs to undermine the liberties we have been granted. Let me put it this way: I DO have the right to control you. If you pose a danger to society by abusing and trampling your personal freedoms, then you forfeit those rights and should be subject to the laws of a moral country.
