What I disagree with is affording the right of the Government, to dictate vis-a-vis victimless crimes, by using actual crimes as an excuse. They do it every time some nut opens fire with a gun as well.

Rape,Robbery,DWI,Murder and other...”arguments” are already crimes.

The right of people to be left the hell alone, in certain matters is sacrosanct.

Agreed-I think of it as the chicken little reaction-or over-reaction-and the nannies just use it to blow smoke up the collective ass of the other chickens.

I’ve said I believe that murder, assault, robbery are crimes while substance use/abuse or any other personal habit that harms no one but oneself is not until I just get exasperated.

I don’t see how anyone can allow themselves to be be obese, or stuff their faces with packaged processed food, McDonalds crap and sugary drinks and desserts, but that is only my opinion, and I don’t have the right-or desire-to fine someone, or forbid their having that stuff-let us all name our poison, and let others do the same.
