Prompted by a comment in another thread about some Libertarians and marijuana legalization.
For those in favor of keeping marijuana illegal...
By what Right do claim to do so?
By what Right do YOU have the authority to tell a consenting adult what they may put into their body?
Something I think we all agree with is that this should be a State issue. The federal government and it's war on the people aka war on drugs costs us billions of dollars every year and does nothing to combat the real problems or issues.
Not that is matters for the purposes of this thread, but I personally don't indulge in it and never saw any appeal to it, then again I'm not into whips and chains either, but who am I to judge?
That behind us, I believe Marijuana should be treated like alcohol. Legal for adults to purchase and consume. As to impairment, same for driving drunk.
