I support peoples' rights to take drugs if they want, as long as it does no
harm to other people.  I support the right to kill yourself if you want, as
long as you take noone else with you that doesn't want to go.  Does that mean
that I'm going to take acid, go out, and ram Andy Scott Beals head-on in a
stolen hotwired 4x4?  Just because someone supports something doesn't mean
that they happen to do it.  Look at the "recreational" people stress in front
of certain drugs.  People who know much about using it know enough not to
endanger others.  (Reminds me of an acquaintance who was very careful when
driving due to pot ingestion.  Not *one* accident.  Last time he was hit by
a car was when he'd quit for a good while.  Says something, no?)
