Quote:once again thats not the point. people have bad trips on shrooms/lsd and it can be quite nasty...meth/cocaine/ crack/methamphetamines and everything else other than pain meds have any place in my world and I dont want my 5 year old granddaughter to grow up thinking its cool to get blasted out of her mind every day  

 

They don't have a place in your world, that's great, because no one is going to force you to start taking them just because they're legal. They do have a place in some people's world and they have a right to that just as much as you have a right to keep them out of your world.

 

Why would she think that? If her parents raise her to not think it's "cool to get blasted out of her mind every day", then she probably won't. Or she will, whatever, it's each person's choice. 

 

My whole point of it all is incredibly simple. People should have the right to do what they want as long as it doesn't actively interfere with another person's rights. Notice I said rights, not beliefs.
