Socialists really hate freedom, don't they? Somehow, it's always "capitalism" in question when it is, in fact, freedom. It's none of the government's business what somebody takes into their body. All drugs should be decriminalized anyway.

Smoking and alcohol take millions of lives every year, yet we say "people have the right" to drink or smoke. Why is marijuana different, which is way less dangerous than alcohol, which is pure poison?

Can’t wait to hear what you think of the UK’s “smoke free generation” laws…

When you ask your government to look after your health, don’t be surprised when then start banning stuff that’s bad for your health.

Cigarettes are not criminalized. Criminalization != Legalization.
