Drugs is an extremely difficult balance.
We can't just say that everyone should be allowed to do what they want.
Trust me, I don't refrain from drug abuse because certain drugs are illegal, nor would I start using them if they were legalized. Social opprobrium, a love for my family and my own body are what keep me from abusing myself with drugs. It has nothing to do with the laws passed by corrupted legislators.

Exactly. If a libertarian legalization of drugs were to take place, there would be significant social problems until certain types of controls were imposed.
You can't just say that people should do what they want and then walk away. They become walking time bombs.
