as soon as you are part of society, you need to be responsible and take into account what your actions may do to others. It doesn't matter if we are talking about legal or illegal drugs. I may have a few drinks at a party, but I would take into consideration, if my children were around, the example I was setting. I would take into consideration if I were planning on operating a motor vehicle. I would take into consideration if I had to go to work the next day.Nobody here supports taking drugs in front of children or to the detriment of their job performance, so I don't know why you bothered to post this. The issue at hand is whether government has the authority to ban drug use; do you have a position on that?
