LEGALIZE DRUGS OR BAN FAST FOOD

Thank you for publishing the outstanding recent letter headlined
"Libertarians right on drug laws."

I'd like to add that it seems to me adult citizens of a so-called free
country should be able to smoke, swallow, snort or inject any
substance they want. And be personally responsible for the
consequences.

Every justification for the criminalization for certain politically
selected drugs, can also be made for the criminalization of a long
list of potentially unhealthy foods.

Do we want our police arresting and jailing us for eating
cheeseburgers, hot dogs or corn dogs? Hopefully not.

Do we want our police arresting and jailing each other for eating
doughnuts?
