*sigh*

I know, I know, a conservative/libertarian's favorite two-word phrase, "personal responsibility".

People are responsible for their actions, sober or intoxicated. If you are unsure of how you will handle a substance, do it in moderation or under supervision. If you know you are unstable while intoxicated, then it is up to YOU (not the government) to regulate YOURSELF.

Simply shooting up heroin, smoking crack, or drinking alcohol does not impede on someone else's rights. It's not a guarantee that I will impede on another's rights. Does being intoxicated make you more vulnerable to impeding on someone else's rights? Sure, but I refer you back to my previous paragraph.

Besides, most of the people who would be more likely to abuse substances are already abusing them. Just like with gun control (and any other senseless government regulation), you're only preventing the responsible users/owners from access. You're doing nothing to prevent abuse.


whoa.
