No, I think you are the one with the misunderstanding. You don't seem to realize that freedom is a two way street and that for your freedoms to be respected you have to respect the freedoms of others to live their lives as they please. The War Against Drugs, supported by people such as yourself, has done great harm to our country and you just don't seem to understand that. Why is that? Are you really so afraid that drugs might corrupt your little "young patriots" that you are willing to raise them up to be drug law enforcers who will lock people in cages for many years for doing nothing more than enjoying the freedoms that our Founding Fathers enjoyed?

When does “freedom” to abuse a substance turn into slavery to the substance itself. Hmm?

What you really want is freedom from consequences. You want your pot and you want it legal and you don’t care who gets hurt. Freedom without responsibility isn’t freedom at all. Your “freedom” will result in collateral damage to a lot of other lives, especially those who are too young to understand consequences before they get hooked on substances. They will think because the government permits an act, it sanctions it.

You should give up. This isn’t an argument you are going to win with me, but I have had fun anyway.
