I'm for giving adults whatever they want- people have every right to harm themselves in my universe- but I don't want to pay for their mistakes. So, if they lose a liver over alcohol- no transplant, or if they lose their brain on LSD no transplant (joke). But you get the idea- of course you have to have some compassion, I suppose, compassion is actually why I'm for decriminalization. I think having our jails full of drug criminals is LUDICROUS. I don't give a crap about drug use. I'm much more concerned about murder and rape and really vicious crimes with victims. And of course you can cut drug related crime if drugs are decriminalized and cheap- which would probably go some to cut the murder rate.

And I don't make the argument because I want to use drugs- I don't drink, I don't smoke, and I have no desire to use any drugs- but I don't see why I should inflict that lifestyle choice on anyone else.
