Some people can digest milk. Other's can't. Indians lack the proper enzymes for processing alcohol, and so it screws them up worse than it does white people.
Your attitude that everyone should be exposed to drugs that might kill some of them because SOME people are not in danger is self centered and foolish.
We know vaccines will sometimes kill people, but the quantity of people saved make up for the possibility that some will die. Drugs have no such redeeming features regarding the people they kill.
That immuned people get some pleasure does in no way make up for the fact that susceptible people DIE.
Only a fool thinks that just because he is immuned, so must everyone else be also. The reality is that some can handle it, and for others it wrecks them.
Wow, so you want to outlaw milk and booze?

I guess you do.

I read all the posts on this thread and don’t remember seeing where CF said everyone should be exposed to drugs. I did see where he questioned the effectiveness of the WOD and whether or not MJ should be illegal.
Since some people can’t digest milk as well others should milk be illegal and since Indians can’t handle alcohol should alcohol be illegal.
The only "exposure" that would be done to those people is legal availability - which can't in and of itself kill anyone; the sort of "exposure" that can kill some users of alcohol or other drugs is the sort people do to themselves, namely use.

Only in a collectivist philosophy can the pleasure of A even be weighed in the same scale as the self-inflicted death of B. By your logic, since as you point out milk can be harmful to some people, it should at a minimum be under much tighter restrictions than is currently the case: only people who can show that they or someone in their care has physiological needs that can be met only by milk should be permitted to purchase milk. And peanuts can KILL.
