bruce,
this analogy would work better if you were comparing it with someone compelling another person to do drugs.
When it comes down to personal liberty....we should be allowed to do whatever drugs we choose to.
Unfortunately, the reality of life means that those who do drugs also have to share reality with the rest of us. When those folks repeatedly fuck things up and cost innocent people things like THEIR lives, safety and money, then the lawmakers are compelled to take steps like regulating and outlawing the drugs that effect the drug users.
