"I agree with your post entirely. But weren't you against legalising marijuana because it is dangerous?
With your thoughts on government control, how do you justify someone being able to decide for themselves if they want to do a dangerous activity hot air ballooning and be OK with it, but not OK with someone wanting to inhale something that could be dangerous into their own body.
Different topics I know, but how you can preach freedom with one sentence and take it away with the next."
first we should clear up if I was arguing against legalising marijuana or not and you should satisfy yourself on that --
if you could point me to the post please - or read it again yourself - because I doubt if I would have argued that one
it possibly could have been badly written though (apologies if it was) ----------- I most probably was talking about marijuana not being harmless as many think --
that doesn't mean that I would be against legalisation - and, for many years I have been for decriminalisation.
I would like to square that away first - because I wouldn't like the misunderstanding to get in the way of a debate about what you really want to talk about - which is freedom and the curtailing of it - comparing some things to others.
I think it's a very valuable debate.
