Wrong. You nor anyone has standing to tell another what they can put in their own body. The law has standing to hold them accountable for their actions while under the influence but choosing one plant over another is not the role of a civil government.

NECESSARY DISCLAIMER: the strongest drug I use is black coffee. No alcohol, no nicotine, no recreational drugs. I do take an 81 mg aspirin every morning.

Yes we do, because to allow the unfettered use of drugs will result in a collapse of government. The first order of any governing system is to insure it's own survival, and any system which allows it's own citizens to kill themselves will not survive very long.

The law has standing to hold them accountable for their actions while under the influence but choosing one plant over another is not the role of a civil government.

So you are blatantly asserting that people have right to do heroine or crack. (both come from plants.)

Speak up. Tell us you support a right to Heroin and Crack so that we can recognize you as a kook, and thereafter ignore what you have to say on the subject.

“Wrong. You nor anyone has standing to tell another what they can put in their own body. The law has standing to hold them accountable for their actions while under the influence but choosing one plant over another is not the role of a civil government.”

So, what you are saying is second hand smoke from joints affecting smokers’ children by making them high as a kite is none of our concern???

Where do we draw the line? Opium is a plant. Coca is a plant. Most of the “high as a kite” drugs come from “plants”. It’s like homosexual marriage. “Let them do it”. Then the pedophiles want marriage. Then polygamists. Then it rolls down hill from there.

Laws have to draw the line somewhere. Where’s that line and who draws it???
