5.5 million humans said they were OK with it which is why they have the laws that they have. You're just one schmuck behind a keyboard trying to tell 5.5 million people how to live their lives. How dare you.

How dare I? Simple. I'm not morally bankrupt. And a lot of people being morally bankrupt together doesn't make them right.

If everyone on the planet agreed that you should be killed because you picked that username, would you be wrong to disagree?

You do realize that most of the people who support punishing drug users are corrupt themselves? They have this idea that if they don't like something, then neither should anyone else.

Anyone with a modicum of life experience realizes this.

You think every single person in Singapore agrees with these laws? Are they a hive mind? Seems like you're the one telling them how to live their lives since you're saying they all are of one mind. Unless, of course, you have a poll that shows unanimous agreement. Do you have such a poll?
