You sound like you're the type that has to learn everything the hard way.

There is a difference between laws that protect people and ensure fair commerce, and laws that get passed by special interests for their benefit. The latter are the unfair laws and need to be removed -- America has always been about freedom of choice, remember the "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" part of the Declaration of Independence? So when a certain activity like using recreation drugs gets restricted when it mostly affects only the user, that is an unjustified restriction of liberty.
