I am, though, in support of the idea that "hard drugs" should be illegal and there shouldn't be any leeway for who get nailed with them. Anyone who knows people who do these drugs knows that it doesn't take long for that person to become completely dependent on being high all the time. Anyone who thinks that legalizing drugs (again, I want to list the ones I'm talking about, but I guess I can't) is looking at the issue in a short-sighted way. "The government is taking away my rights!" doesn't really cut it when the government is preventing the harm to society at large. This is especially compounded since an overwhelming majority of American citizens supports the law concerning hard drugs.
