By the way, you don’t use “recreational” drugs, but do you drink? Is that not cowardly and insane? Why, because it lacks the modifier “recreational”?

I’ll sum the anti position up so far. And in a factually correct manner.

1. I do not approve of something.
2. there is no basis for my disapproval other than people who think as I do.
3. Because the founders of our counter participated in the use of substances, I will pretend they did not while simultaneously evoking patriotic themes to bolster my disapproval.
4. Since the Constitution gives power to people to alter laws, I will support it when the laws they alter go my way, but fight it to absurdity when they do not.
5. I will accuse any who point out my gross hypocrisy of drug use and mental deficiency.
6. If at any time I encounter facts or evidence that directly counters my position I will ignore it and bull forth with my talking points.

There is the very essence of liberalism. It perfectly describes their stance on Gun control and a number of other traditionally liberal positions.

It is also exactly the behavior displayed on this thread by people determined to fight the drug war at any cost.

That is a problem for us all regardless of our position on the issue.
