As someone who is conservative and just celebrated a year of sobriety, I'm all for it. I probably lean more towards decriminalization than legalization but I think it's time. The ban only profits drug dealers and criminalizes people with addiction issues. Portugal has been a great example of decriminalization working.

I agree. I think sometimes some conservative people need to broaden their perspective a bit. sometimes its better to regulate some drugs than to completely outlaw them. of course that doesn't include laboratory drugs like meth and cocaine.
You cannot be a little pregnant. Any drugs are not only toxic to the body, but also the provocation of crime. If the person is not in control of your consciousness it is always dangerous to others. I'm against drugs.
It doesn't matter! It's your body and your responsibility.
If you are numbing yourself with drugs and get jailed for it, it won't eliminate the problem. People who do it usually have some mental or social problems and want to forget by using drugs. If you jail them they will either kill themselves in prison or serve the sentence, get out and start taking again, because you haven't cured them, you just made them feel more miserable.
Of course, if it refers to drugs and those who use them philosophically, Yes indeed that drug addiction is a sick people. That's just who knows, though, succumbing. Treatment for a person in quantity or is cured?
