Men are qualified for civil liberty in exact proportion to their disposition to put moral chains on their own appetites. Society cannot exist unless a controlling power upon will and appetite be placed somewhere, and the less of it there is within, the more there is without. It is ordained in the eternal constitution of things that men of intemperate minds cannot be free. Their passions forge their fetters. - Edmund Burke If running riot shooting oneself up full of drugs isn't failing to put sufficient boundaries on oneself, then nothing is. When society behaved itself, it wasn't necessary to have drug laws. Because idiots will poison themselves dead these days or become useless burdens on society, the drug laws are necessary to knock some sense into the damn fools. And that is the end of the discussion.
