I try to not be social, no.

I am the son of a severe alcoholic, so I know all about addictions. I also realize that I can’t stop people from harming themselves through drugs without putting the police in every of a house across the nation.

Do you want that kind of society?

People have a right to harm themselves. All we can do is ensure their harm is kept to a minimal point and punish those who do harm while intoxicated.

You have to let people harm themselves and let them die, just like the Founding Fathers would have. There are always going to be a set number of people who will harm themselves. They must be free to do so.

Well if they only harmed themselves and it didn’t effect everyone else, that would be one thing. But since they don’t only harm themselves and do indeed harm everyone else - your argument obviously does not make any sense.
