You assumed a lot about the parent poster that simply wasn’t there. I’m sorry you were drugged against your will. However, that doesn’t justify criminalizing those who use various drugs themselves, without desire to harm others. You say “people who are using drugs for their benefit” and then proceed to equate that only to several predatory behaviors. What about the personal benefits that many cannabis smokers enjoy, at no risk to others? Should they be shamed out of those benefits?
Complete non-sequitur, this is akin to arguing that people should be shamed for being okay with sex because rape exists.

I think you are replying to something I didn't write (i.e. extrapolating).
Sorry if I unintentionally triggered something.
I've changed my views on drug policies thanks to discussing it - mostly politely IIRC - here on HN.
