And every law is an imposition of morality,...

Here's a law: "No Parking". How is that an imposition of morality?

...even laws that would lift bans on drug use is an imposition of someone's morality.

Lifting bans on drug use is not imposing morality, it's just the opposite. It's allowing each person to decide his own morals on that subject. How can the absence of regulation--which is called freedom--be the imposition of morality?

Because it doesn't stay in the privacy of the home. It spills over into the public arena and the community is impacted.
