But I support criminal sanctions for possession, use, and distribution of marijuana. And other drugs that make us insensible, irrational, lethargic, paranoid, or tend to make us hallucinate.

You mean, like alcohol? We tried that, and afterward it seemed like such a terrible idea we undid it. Alcohol makes people insensible, irrational, lethargic, and some paranoid and a very few, hallucinate. All of the above.

No, excess alcohol does the above. Adults who take in moderate amounts of alcohol (accounting for body weight etc.) are actually not significantly impaired.

I oppose drunkenness. It is generally illegal anyway.
