The problem isn't so much that it's illegal, but that we've accepted
that it's the law's job to police morality. The danger of legalizing
drugs isn't the legalization itself so much as the direction our society
is already going with personal responsibility. I'm talking about the
recent spate of lawsuits that are trying to redefine addiction as a
"disability" to be covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act
and therefore something you can't "discriminate" against. What a crock!
Fortunately, it hasn't worked, yet...
