Lastly, the concept of freedom and self-ownership is pretty simple. We allow adults to engage in very destructive behavior: drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes, and eating McDonalds. These unhealthy activities are allowed because we live in a free society, a society which presumes your body is yours and you may do with it as you wish so long as you are not harming others. Except for pot. You cannot smoke pot or armed men may kick in your doors at night, shoot your dogs, and kidnap you. That may sound extreme, but it happens regularly in America over pot.

Let’s end this giant hypocrisy and legalize marijuana once and for all.
