How can anyone be pro-choice but anti-drug?
All you people who believe women should have a choice to commit abortion because it’s “their body” but then turn right back around and are against drugs are hypocrites! If you truly believe in the concept of “their body”, then why do you not support the right of people to choose to take drugs?
For the record, I am anti-abortion (I believe it’s murder), but pro-legalization of drugs (provided you have reached the age of 18). Abortion is taking another person’s life; drug use is just ruining your own. And no, I have never taken any drugs, but believe other people should be allowed to if they choose.
I believe it is a proper-formed argument. The pro-choice crowd argues for the rights of women to decide what happens with “their body”, so why can’t the pro-drug crowd do it too?
Okay, I agree, pregnant women should not be allowed to use drugs, but what about non-pregnant women and men?
Congratulations on creating an excellent example of a strawman fallacy.
You are basically assuming that the anti-drug argument is built on a single precept – that drug use only harms the user.
In reality, drug use generally supports drug purchasing and manufacture, both of which create several societal ails (e.g., drug gang wars, crime stemming from drug abuse such as DUIs or drug induced rage killings and deaths of actual born children via neglect, drug violence and early onset addiction) .
To say that anti-drug philosophies are based on only one argument is misleading, incorrect and at base a fallacy. You are essentially picking and choosing which of your opponent’s tenants you will argue against.
Because you failed to form a proper argument, I am afraid that I have nothing to argue against.
