I take no pleasure in going past you because, believe it or not, I respect the conservative position on marijuana legalization. Legalizing it seems to me a clear case of slouching towards Gomorrah, in the words of the estimable Robert Bork. At the same time I think libertarians have a good point that people own their bodies and that as long as they’re not harming anyone else, they should be free to do as they please. Furthermore I agree that the war on drugs has a real cost in liberty. This is one of the few issues where I am truly split 50/50, and it bugs me to see one side unfairly demonize the other when there is an intellectually honest case to be made.
