Drug addiction never made the Beatles commit crimes. Nor the seemingly 50% of other great rock-n-rollers with the same problem. Nor Demi Lovato, Ben Affleck, Bradley Cooper, Drew Barrymore, Jamie Lee Curtis, Keith Urban, Daniel Radcliffe, John Belushi or Carrie Fisher. And these are just the addicts whose drug problems made the news. Others, like Timothy Leary, did drugs and kept it under control. 

...his daughter hung herself in jail. Sounds like he was not using his drugs in a vacuum either.

...btw, I am not condemning his right to use em. Just saying it isn't wise. For every person who can "handle it" there are thousands who cannot.

Re: “It is a voluntary action with predictable results.”
Predictions that are often wrong. Drug addiction never made the Beatles commit crimes. Nor the seemingly 50% of other great rock-n-rollers with the same problem. Nor Demi Lovato, Ben Affleck, Bradley Cooper, Drew Barrymore, Jamie Lee Curtis, Keith Urban, Daniel Radcliffe, John Belushi or Carrie Fisher. And these are just the addicts whose drug problems made the news. Others, like Timothy Leary, did drugs and kept it under control.

In a free country, citizens shouldn't be arrested for their private, peaceful behavior. When we surrender our freedoms for ridiculous reasons like "it's dangerous" or "other people don't approve," we empower the government and turn the citizenry into sheep - both of which are inevitably disastrous for the nation.
