I used illegal drugs for many years at my own personal risk. It was my choice. I never pushed for their legalization. I realized that most of the population - including myself in hindsight - can not handle psychoactive self-prescription.
I don't comprehend the need to try to make public policy about individual choices.
For example, I've lived with 2 women for many years but I never proselytize for legalized polygamy.
I hear a lot of "me! me! me!" behind many calls for public policy changes.
Just because you think something is OK for you - it doesn't mean that it makes smart public policy to legislate it.
