Have you read “Saying Yes - In Defense of Drug Use” by Jacob Sullum? He goes through the (so-called) recreational drugs & discusses the effects. He also interviews responsible users. A lot of the worry about irresponsible use is just hype by gov’t or anti-drug folks. The reality isn’t as bad as it’s made out to be. It’s an interesting read, regardless of where you stand on the issue.

I don’t use drugs, but I’m certainly tired of the militarization of our police forces. That has got to stop & it would be stopped if we could stop the WoD.

Less gov’t, more freedom.

Sullum, of course, had the advantage of being able to hand-pick his sample of "responsible drug users," whereas the rest of us don't....
