All the Libertarian arguments devolve to “We want people to smoke pot.”

That is just bs. The libertarian argument with respect to drugs is two-fold: first, we are a free people, and do not give one person the right to tell another what they can and cannot do, unless there is physical harm or theft involved; and second, the WOD has caused far more problems than it has solved (which, incidentally, is nothing, as far as I can see).

Obviously, the Libertarian party is going to attract users of drugs, and therefore may have an element that is pro-drug use. But your statement is just silly and uninformed. BTW-- my personal position is that drug laws are counterproductive, and inevitably result in the decay of otherwise useful institutions (law enforcement, border patrol, etc.). But it is a very low priority issue. We have far too many people of low character, and people cannot be free if, collectively, they lack the character to use that freedom in a responsible manner.

Every time I see a Libertarian post, they talk about pot.
