I think "Liberty" entails the liberty to do pretty well as you damned well please without government interference (or interference from any private citizens) unless you're demonstrably hurting them or their property. Smoking pot, eating LSD, snorting cocaine, shooting heroin... none of them poses a clear and present danger to anybody except the user.

So I guess you would be happy as a clam with a crack house next door to you.
