Drugs are anti-freedom

“Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.” — Thomas Jefferson

You cannot pervert this into a Right, the right to use illegal drugs.
And you may as well say Sharia has a right to cut off heads because it's
their version of freedom. Yes that is the extreme example yet it applies.

We are still a nation of laws, and by all means, go ahead and try to change that.
In the mean time I would love the Feds to crack down on all those states who do not
uphold the laws against illegal Drugs. Including the users, all of them.

Someone comparing drug interdiction to tyranny is cheapening the horror that is real tyranny.

You are bringing REAL TYRANNY, but again, your mind cannot contemplate beyond your own petty existence. The future consequences of your advocacy simply escape you because you judge everything from your little tiny experience instead of far more expansive historical perspective.
