Because an adult should be legally allowed to make decisions about their own body and what they consume.
In a free society at least.
Quoting: *Heisenberg* Yes but harder drugs deemed socially acceptable will lead to alot of addictions. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15610509 Do you not do herione because it's illegal? Or because you know it will eff your life up? I don't need a law to tell me Heroine is bad for me, I don't think most Americans do. Plus all these substances being illegal immediately creates a black market for them. If these substances were legal, there would be no mexican drug cartel. 50,000 people near the borders wouldn't be dead. I think that makes up for the few possible addicts that result from the laws. Quoting: *Heisenberg* Besides which, being "illegal" doesn't seem to stop meth heads, crack heads, or heroin addicts. And it is arguable whether or not pot is "addictive" in the strict sense of the word. There has been a huge industry constructed around convincing people that pot is "addictive", and that only a jail sentence or an expensive stay in a "rehab" can "cure" the "hopeless addict". While there ARE a few people with addictive personalities who will inject ANYTHING into their bodies if they suspect that they will get "high", for the most part the greater percentage of pot users are peaceful, law-abiding citizens who hold down respectable jobs, pay their taxes, and just want a little privacy and the ability to relax after a hard day at work.
