i'd say people who cut themselves are handicapped but that's not relevant here
I also don't see how thats relevant to drug use at all.
it is relevant
it's harmful to the person who does it, but harmless to others, which is pretty much the same situation that drugs are in
and yet we punish those who do drugs, while helping those who self-harm
Not exactly, drugs could cause the users to be violent, overly emotional, etc. This could potentially be a danger to those around the user.
Yeah but video games don't make you violent or a danger to anyone around you. Same with junk food, except your poor eating habits make you a danger to yourself. Self harm is obviously harmful to only the person. It can have emotional effects on those around the person who is harming themself however. I also don't see how thats relevant to drug use at all.
again, though, mczealot was doing marijuana, which doesn't really make you violent, and i'm assuming he wasn't driving or anything while high
this doesn't harm anyone except
arguably himself
