Misuse of Drugs Act 1971

Reason why it should be put on the Bonfire

For interfering with peoples right to find happiness in their own way, for promulgating the myth that your body and person belong to the state, for weakening the public mind by nannying people instead of allowing them to shoulder their own responsibilities and make their own choices. All amendments thereto, also withdrawal from all treaties relating to the control of drugs should be effected immediately.
