You only live once (on this planet)! – as far as we know – so why not live the way you choose?\u00a0 Why deny someone his choice for opioids?\u00a0 Why campaign against this sacred right?<\/p>\n
Sounds stupid, but it is not irrational.\u00a0 I don’t understand how a secular society thinks it can impose some “out-dated” morality upon its youth.\u00a0 If someone wants to “check out” of this planet and go to the next “zone” and see what’s there, who are the parents or friends or government to deny him this freedom?<\/p>\n
Freedom of choice!\u00a0 No imposition of outdated parental values or the values of society upon others!\u00a0 Each person has the right to life – to live or die and go to the next zone as he chooses!<\/p>\n
There is no Law, not God, no authority in these matters above the individual.\u00a0 Freedom!\u00a0 To dope or not to dope is a question for each individual to decide.\u00a0 It is my choice.\u00a0 My body.\u00a0 Not God’s!<\/p>\n
