As long as all the druggies agree to OD to celebrate, I'm all for legalization!
Until then, this pro-drug propaganda just makes me realize how hollow much of our pro-gun propaganda is! At least we have a constitutional right to bear arms. We don't have one to get hopped up on meth and go break into our neighbor's house...
Quite frankly, many of the pro-gun arguments that people use are very weak to begin with, and rely entirely on our (presumably correct) interpretation of the second amendment. With drugs, the arguments are often just as weak (the most common statement in this thread is "We can't stop it so why bother trying?"), but they have no constitutional basis unless you erroneously hold that you can do whatever the hell you want to just because you're an Ammurican.
There may be good arguments for the legalization of some drugs, but to simply display such apathy and assume that the legalization of "hard drugs" for recreational use will confer any benefit on society is just as bad as the antis who disarm citizens and then look away from the chaos that ensues...
Also, IBTL. Seems as if the pro-druggies get a little... excited over the concept here. I don't know about you, but I've seen a lot of good people get messed up on drugs. Even drugs that the interwebs assures me are perfectly safe, like pot.
