      To compare getting high to murdering a person might be the most unfitting and dumb comparison I have heard in my whole life.

        Both damage someone, even though using drugs mostly (but not only) hurts yourself

              Fucking what? Making decisions about my own body somehow violates my rights?

              What next, you’re going to regulate my diet to make sure I don’t hurt my own “rights” by eating too many pastries or having too many drinks?

              You don’t sound like someone who values individual liberty. You sound like a wannabe fascist trying to control people.

      Harm reduction is a well studied principle based on real science.

      What sources do you have that legalizing murder will decrease the harm of it?

      Therapy for addicts, Jail for murderers, rapist and shady bussinesspeople (and also therapy for all).
