Does libertarian support of personal liberty extend to drug use?
Alcohol prohibition tore America apart once. Now it is the war on drugs. Harsh laws and the threat of jail and fines will not stop drug use. All they do is make it harder to help people. And just as Prohibition created organized crime, today’s drug laws keep organized crime alive — with all the violence and corruption that goes along with it. Before drugs were illegal, Americans handled them with few problems. Let’s respect the right of people to control their own bodies. Decriminalize drugs, help those who need it, and let the police spend their time protecting us from real crime.
