So let them use. As long as they do it responsibly, what is the problem?

No, you are. A history of drug abuse is an indicator of future
behaviour.




This is blatent bull****... you've eaten way too many government MRE's



No, that is pretty well known. It is very hard for drug abusers to
quit, whether the drug is nicotine, alcohol or something else.

Past users are very much more likely to be future users.

True, but if you give them no reason to quit, then they will not. Drawing
the line and saying anyone who ever got convicted for possession cannot fly
seems to be over the top to me. I am more likely to get run over by them
than hit by them in a plane. Should we not take away their driving
privileges as well?
