Mike Huckabee, Ladies and Gentlemen Mike Huckabee: If we're saying gay marriage is okay... Why not assisted suicide or prostitution?! Hospitalized Man: Great question, actually. Prostitute: Yeah, let's legalize those things. Woman: Hey, now. Let's not forget about weed!

Yet gambling has become legal. How do the religious allow that?

My state allows “death with dignity”, although the methods are limited by restrictions that make no medical sense, because “conservatives” got some of their way to get the bill passed. Where prostitution is legal, like some, but not all, counties in Nevada, violence goes down. Pot REDUCES violent tendencies in the user, while meth, and many legal drugs INCREASE violent, including self-harming, tendencies. (Watch the TV ads on all those “anti-depressants” that can lead users to suicide.)
While I’ve long supported “civil unions” for anyone, the verbiage, not the underlying facts, DO make “marriage” more of a religious, rather than “legal”, term.
The fundamental hypothesis of “Libertarian” is “live and let live (or die)”, as one would choose for themselves, if it harms nobody else, or society at large, or well, the environment we all share. Intelligently applied, it’s the “liberal” basis for most of our Constitution. Liberals and Libertarians have no problem applying logic, and freedom. It IS “conservatives” and strict religionists (doesn’t really equate to “faithful”) who want to deny INDIVIDUAL freedoms.
Please note again the “do no harm” element of laws to grant freedoms, while NOT harming “others”.

“If Clinton (I never inhaled) and Obama (Choom Gang) never legalized weed, unfortunately it ain’t getting done.”That may be slowly accomplished by the states. Personally, I don’t care what people smoke in their own home, just so long as they aren’t putting others in harm’s way in the process.
