But let's ask ourselves a really important question: can these people really not "will" themselves to stop, or is the fact of the matter that they simply don't want to stop?


Answer: It doesn't matter. The bottom line is it's their choice, not ours, and so no one has the right to force them to stop without infringing on all of our individual liberties. But you already knew that.

There's no such thing as oppression for your own protection, yet that is the reasoning behind laws such as these.

The only person who should decide what is harmful to my well-being is me. I'd rather die a free man, than to live under the will of others.
