"There was less drug use in the sixties than there is now."But there was more drug use in the 60's than in the 50's. Hence the laws.
"...In other words, if your morality depends on the law, you have no morals."
If laws are necessary to control your immoral behavior then, yes, you have no morals. Seems obvious. What that has to do with freedom, I don't know.

ROFL!!!
You're grasping at straws. The drug laws never justified the little drug use of those times. Everything you think you know about the sixties is wrong. We were a drug free society in the sixties compared to today. Again...The drug war created the drug cartels that flood our streets with potent and cheap drugs. There were no drug gangs in the sixties!

Who decides what is moral? If the government decides religion is immoral, is that ok with you? If not, why not.
