Ok. After long experience with marijuana in my youth, I am willing to concede that it is a) not "good" for you, and b) kids shouldn't be using it, period.
However, I am of the belief that an adult should be able to use it if they wish, for any reason they wish. I also say this about prostitution, gambling, homosex, prescription medications, motocycle helmets and seatbets, etc. etc. so that there is NO double standard here on my part.
Prohibition DOES NOT work, and just puts the $$$ in the hands of criminals. Just because something is dumb, illogical, personally dangerous, etc. does not mean it should be illegal.
ENOUGH already with the nanny-state attitudes.
And, Liberaltarianism is the virus that perverts Conservatism.
Thanks for being the irrelevant 2% of the political population.
This isn't about the effects of dope it's about religion.
I dont belive that "liberty" and "freedom" are completely synomonous and therefore could we not say that "liberty" in essence is one being "free from coercion"?
