Leave it to Lemmyists to downvote a comment saying that you shouldn’t be allowed to force other people to breathe poisonous smoke.

Tell that to all the smokers trying to quit who wish their younger self had not started in the first place.

Yeah, which is why illegal drugs have more users than legal drugs (alcohol and tobacco). Except they don’t.

But parents are allowed to expose them to the smoke.

My argument is that since illegal drugs have significantly fewer users, prohibition does reduce usage.

I don’t know about the USA, but I see tobacco smokers every day and very rarely see marijuana smokers.

Why not expand the definition of child abuse to include these things instead of punishing people who are never around kids?

That sounds like a great idea, but it’s going to be impossible to enforce.

Well, then the prohibition has pretty much fulfilled its purpose.
