Your examples are awful. Rape is not victimless. Recreational drug use is.

Having seen two friends' lives consumed and ultimately ended by heroin, and their families' lives destroyed in the process, this is the most clueless, ignorant statement I've read on this board to date.

No. That was their decision. People should think before they do heroin, and if they don't, they don't deserve to live. We shouldn't take away things that are dangerous to the user who makes a conscious choice to use them. We should try to educate and help people make informed decisions, which is pretty much the exact opposite of what America does with drugs. If you need to be protected from yourself, your life isn't worth much anyway.
