Hard Drugs should be legal

I find it rather amusing that some of the logic of the pro-drugs group is that "we have two harmful substances which are legal and causing problems in society, so let's add some more!"

The government has no right to tell me what I can and can not put into my body. They only have a right to reprimand me if I begin to harm others or property. Tuff this isn't about slavery or the defense department. It is about the legalization of drugs. The government has no right to micromanage me.

They have the right to do whatever the American populace as a whole tells them to do. The beauty of democracy is that if you want drugs legalized, you can make a political party that will legalize them.

Assuming we keep 4-year POTUS election cycles, you'll have to wait 'til 2028, Candidate Strike. That'll make you an old man of what, 37?

Unless you meant 2026 for Texas Guv, first.

Smokers harm only themselves (and barely that if they quit soon enough) and alcohol is the foundation of our society

See, the problem is that they don't just harm themselves. They harm everyone around them even more since the people around him are actually inhaling smoke without filters. That is the reasoning behind the banning of smoking in all small closed comercial surfaces in most of Western Europe.

The only people significantly harmed would be the people working at the bar or restaurant, not the customers.

and even then the effect is minimal.
