I'm opposed to the legalization of drugs. You shouldn't do them inside or outside — and again, this includes tobacco.

Ok, but counter point, drugs are really fun.

You.. You do have a pretty good point there.

Not only are drugs fun, but they actually work.

Hell yeah, I think I was halfway into a jug of homemade wine and smoking a doobie when I wrote that.
If you can be perfectly content sober, that's awesome. I wish I were. A lot of us just aren't.

Well, I hope you can sober up someday.

On caffeine: I believe it's a pseudo-drug, but it shouldn't be banned, just regulated. The same goes for sugar and the like. It won't make you a criminal, or turn your lungs into balls of sludge, but it's not something to consume in large quantities.
It's in so many things, and won't be going away any time soon. Caffeine is in coffee, soda, tea, and hot chocolate, apparently — all things people consume on a daily basis.
I actually drink way too much Dr. Pepper — though I've abstained from daily doses of coffee, I only drink it around once a month, and only if it's diluted. I have GERD, and according to a doctor I haven't seen in years, I'm not supposed to consume any caffeine — but she also told me not to eat any meat, and I ain't living like no vegan just 'cause my stomach hurts.
But according the the link above, some tea has more caffeine than Dr. Pepper, so sugar is probably what I should be concerned about.

Yeah, I think that if you seek out stimulants specifically to alter your mental state, then that's a bad thing, but if I just want to drink some Dr. Pepper, because I like the taste, then it's not. I would love it if they made decaff Dr. Pepper, though, and the same goes for tea.

There's a big difference between intentionally consuming a drug and knowingly consuming a drug. In the former case, the prime motive is to receive the effects of that drug, and in the latter case, the prime motive is something else.

So you're telling me I can't drink any kind of soda or tea, or eat any dark chocolate, or anything else with any caffeine in it?
Nobody is going to go along with not drinking tea, soda and chocolate, perhaps, but not tea.

I'm against the use of hard drugs (including tobacco), but it shouldn't be a crime. No one can tell me what I can or can't put into my own body.

I agree, I believe all drugs should be decriminalized — but that's very different than legalization. If you sell drugs, though, you should go to prison.
Drug use breeds crime, laziness, and degeneracy — which are all collective burdens which harm the rest of society as well. You can't make the "don't tell me what to do" argument so long as your actions affect others.

I'd believe you were serious if you included sugar in that simplistic, ill-informed blanket statement.

No, we aren't going to ban sugar, Mr. Bloomberg.
