[QUOTE="soberups, post: 959113, member: 14668"] As libertarian, I believe that people should have the freedom to make an informed choice about what substances they wish to ingest into their bodies. As a recovering alcoholic, I also realize that there are some substances (heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine among others) that are so powerfully addictive that there really is no actual "freedom" involved once addiction sets in. These substances should not be "legal" per se, but they should be made available by prescription to addicts who are willing to register as such and place themselves under medical supervision. Cannabis can also be psychologically addictive, but not to the extent that alcohol or"hard drugs" are. Chronic abuse of cannabis is also far less physically or psychologically damaging than chronic abuse of alcohol or hard drugs. I say this from personal experience. Been there, done that, got the T shirt. The "war on drugs" is causing far more death and destruction than the drugs themselves ever will. Its time to end the war. As far as cannabis goes, it is pointless to outlaw a weed and there is no rational reason why it should be illegal for a person to grow and use it in the privacy of their own home. [/QUOTE]
