Prohibition is a false concept

Crimes involve more than one person so we cannot do a crime against ourselves even if we are doing harm. To do harm to yourself is not a crime and other people have no right to intervene if you are hurting yourself. You have a right to hurt yourself. And we can see from this that (by extension) we have no right to 'ban' drugs because everyone has a right to do as they wish with their own body. We cannot do a crime to ourselves and so other people have the right to take drugs if they want. We have no right to protect people from their own choices. People are allowed to make mistakes if it affects only them. Prohibition (of drugs) is a false notion.
