   All good examples of the state interfering in matters of personal   
   morality.  Notice that social liberal governments have moved towards   
   harm reduction policy and have actually done a lot better job of   
   reducing abortion, drug addiction and alcohol abuse.  In Canada same-sex   
   marriage has been a huge non-issue after the law was changed to make it   
   inclusive.  The prohibitionists had their chance and their way just made   
   things worse.  They just can't grasp the concept of a state that   
   refrains from matters of personal morality.
