Tough to be an addict if you never try it. I'm all for a free society, but there are repercussions to every choice you make.

Of course there are, and I don't think anyone would argue that he's making sound decisions. What I'm saying is that it can be a slippery slope depending on a number of factors that we don't understand since: A. We aren't addicts, and B. We don't know who he is or his life. Because of those reasons, I try not to judge people that go through this kind of stuff.

Millions of people are able to drink alcohol responsibly without it leading anywhere. Those same people are able to use drugs recreationally without it becoming a problem. He's not one of those people, obviously. I'm not smart enough or well-versed enough on addiction to say definitively, but I doubt he woke up one day and just started smoking crack or shooting heroin.
