While I do enjoy a drink on a rare occasion, I do not enjoy smoking anything, yet I will still stand up for people who choose to do either. It is about liberties.
The gov't shouldn't be controlling what its citizens choose to do. While people may not be making the best decisions, who am I to tell them what to do?
I can tell people smoking is stupid, and I do. I can tell people that drinking is stupid, and I do. I can tell people not to take drugs, and I do.
But really, their decisions are their own self-responsiblity. If Montana decides to not abide by the 0.8 laws in certain counties where they determine it to be safe then they should be allowed to do so. There probably wasn't much difference anyways within the past 10 years or so when most of those counties were 1.0 +.
