When I was younger, I’d have thrown my support behind this.
Now that I’m older and world-wiser, I’m much less on board with that. Cannabis? Fine. Heroin? Whatever, you do you. Cocaine? Absolutely not. Not that I’m against cocaine, it’s just that people on cocaine are really, really annoying.
Right, but people take all those drugs anyway even though it is illegal.
All prohibition does is mean it’s unregulated, unsafe and a huge waste of policing resources and ruined lives (mostly via enforcement).
Drugs should be a health issue, not a policing one.

So you’re for criminalising alcohol use then?
