Your position is clearly intractable and has seemingly been filled with more resolve the older you get.
In 2010 you used the same argument ('I've smoked about 10 times') and were far less militant about the impact of the drug on an individual and society.
What's changed, peter?

I am a pretty libertarian person, I used to believe in the legalization of all drugs. This book totally changed my opinion, except in the case of marijuana and some hallucinogens. Wilson does not revert to moralizing but makes an explicit cost/benefit argument against legalization. Read it!
