"Here is your original premise that supported your entire argument until.."
No. My original premise is that human beings have natural rights such as the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Individuals have the right to live their own life according their own values which includes the right to choose their own food, drink, medicine, and everything else. Freedom means that every adult human being has the right to do whatever he wants as long as he does not harm the person or property of another.
Freedom means that prohibitionists such as yourself and other violent thugs do not have the right to murder, assault, rob, or arrest their fellow humans for exerciseing their natural rights. You do not have the right to illegalize freedom or basic rights. You do not have the right to point a gun at another person's head just because you do not approve of what that person eats for breakfast or drinks, or otherwise ingests. Likewise, freedom means that you do not have the right to authorize others to commit these crimes in the name of some law. Freedom also includes the right of self-defense. Every individual has the right to arm himself in order to defend himself from violent predators which includes prohibitionists and other illegalizers.
"You call yourself a libertarian, but what part of liberty don't you understand? A free market capitalist is the ultimate libertarian. Profit, at whatever percent of costs, should not be regulated except by the demand. "
I am a defender of free people and free markets incuding a free market in drugs. It is you and your fellow illegalizers that support the illegalization of medicinal plants, not me. It is you, not me, who supports the war against consumers, producers, and distributors who support the free market. What part of liberty don't you understand?
"Prohibition was repealed, Cheech. But, thanks for making my point. "
Thank you, Carrie Nation, for making my point which is to repeal drug Prohibition, the policy that YOU support. Do you finally see that Prohibitionists are violent lunatics who need to be slapped down? Do you finally admit the truth that it is WRONG to murder, assault, rob, and arrest people just because you do not approve of what they eat, drink, or smoke?
