We take risks everyday. It isn't up to you to decide which risks I should be allowed to take.
The risks you take should not present a risk to me or mine, though. Your "rights" as you may see them stop where mine start, and vice-versa. I don't tell you what to believe, or what to wear, or anything else, great or small. But if through your drug use you harm others, directly or indirectly, then you have no right to say your risks are yours alone. Where do you think the money you blow on dope goes anyhow? Mother Teresa's mission? The Red Cross?

I wish druggies would spend more time thinking about how they could take risks to help others instead of withdrawing from the real world into their own private pharmaceutical sanctuary with the flimsy excuse of "hey I'm not hurting anybody."

To return again, oh never!

But they've stopped his grog forever.
For tonight we'll merry, merry be,
For tonight we'll merry, merry be,
For tonight we'll merry, merry be,
But tomorrow we'll be sober.
