Good luck explaining a victimless crime to some people around here. They simply don’t get it and would rather someone else make the decision for them. Then they put up a straw man and cry lime the liberals they truly are.
It’s part of a larger folly called the demonization of “things.” It used to be that if you got soused in public, no matter what from, you’d be put in the pillory or worse. What was sanctioned was the act of misuse, not the item.
It is liberal, not conservative, philosophy that brought us Prohibition and all its cousins.
