Are there laws which prohibit the actual taking of drugs? I thought they all targeted manufacture, distribution, and sale, which are definitely in the purview of the state to limit. I guess simple possession would be the grey area here, but there are plenty of other substances whose possession is regulated as well.
- adrusi 11y agoIf you completely eliminate all avenues to acquiring something, then you're taking away the right to have or use it. Imagine if the government had banned the manufacture, distribution and sale of printing presses. Also possession of drugs is hardly a gray area. It's quite explicitly illegal in all countries but a few.
