>"I can see your line of thinking: X has risks, X should not be done, thus make X illegal and X will not be done and the risk will no longer exist." I've tried on numerous occasions to debate with individuals that hold such an opinion. Once you point out the obvious error in their reasoning, they quickly move the goal post. It then becomes more about "protecting" productive society, and the slippery slope argument that everyone will devolve into "addicted, unproductive and unhealthy junkies". Making out to seem like we want society to burn and be ruined, when in actual fact we just want to allow individuals to be free to do with their bodies as they please, because there is no moral right by others to prevent them from doing so.
