[Pee Wee Herman]

If the issue of personal choice is so fundamental to American society, then how come the government sees fit to illegalize things that are relatively harmless? I'm talking about things like marijuana, gay marriage, and polygamy, to name a few. You claim that people should have the right to choose to be a fat fuck. If that's true, then they should have the right to choose a whole bunch of other stuff too. If the government can control things, then how come they can't control what you eat?

Don't turn this into a debate about whether the government should or shouldn't legalize marijuana, gay marriage, polygamy, or whatever. Let's not go totally off topic here.
