Exactly. Individually, we all make different choices as to the risks we are willing to take. Some enjoy recreation drugs, but there are risks involved and I have never been one to want to take those risks. Even though I am a staunch gun rights advocate, I do not possess a firearm because I have not taken the time to get the training I feel necessary to be a responsible gun owner.
But I like to jump out of airplanes. Go figure.
So we get back to what is deemed best for society. There are a lot of screwed up laws and regulations that are deemed best for society, and everyone here would agree with that I'm sure, but not on which laws and regulations fit that description.
