And by the way, people who are high (either by drugs or alcohol) can and do harm others through the things they do while high.

Which is, of course, why those things in and of themselves are illegal. After all, people who own guns can and do harm others through the things they do while holding a gun. Which do you prefer to be illegal: the holding of guns, or the harmful things that some gun owners do while holding them?

Are we not talking about culling the weak any more? Okay. Illegal drugs have only one use - to make someone high, and thus stupid. That is different from owning a gun. Guns have many uses. The two are not comparable.

I support the right to gun ownership. I do not support the legalization of more things to make people 'high' and stupid.
