Before 2010, it was against the law to own handguns in Chicago. Just because it was against the law doesn't mean the law was wrong.
Before you say that McDonald v. City of Chicago cleared up a right that was explicitly protected by the Second Amendment, there is a very reasonable position that voluntary and safe drug use is implicitly protected by the Ninth Amendment:

What's your point? Nobody was forcing anyone to live in Chicago if they felt strongly about owning a firearm
This shithead is an educator. Openly advocating illegal drug use in a state where it's highly illegal. fricking clown world

Not trying to be antagonistic, but I would like to clarify what your position is.
If a person lives in a state with a "no guns allowed, at all" law and they get arrested for owning a Colt 1911 for personal protection, is your position "tough shite"?

My view is not going to be popular view point in here, but, hey...
If you are a cognitive adult you should be allowed to medicate yourself.
frick the government and all involved.
I don't even take aspirin but who s who to say I can't?

I'm not a fan of an "open-ended" Constitution, but the Ninth Amendment, which I cited above, is about as open-ended as the text gets.
If you take it to mean that Americans are guaranteed a whole swath of non-enumerated rights that the Founders took for granted, then recreational drugs probably falls under that category.
There is a ton of historical evidence that colonial/early Americans enjoyed recreational cannibas and opitates without government interference.

Dude will be blowing the dope man in no time. What a fool to play around with heroin.

Sure, but that has no fundamental bearing on whether or not it SHOULD be legal.

If he's functioning and not hurting himself i don't see the problem.
I wouldn't go out downplaying the risks of opioids but I agree that people can function with use but not abuse or addiction.
Alcohol is a terrible and destructive drug but on Fridays (and Saturdays during football season) I'll pound six+ beers and nobody would bat an eye about that. The reason is purely societal norms. Smoking weed would be far less bad for me but people would start whispering to each other if i were going that direction

Yet my employer would fire me if I used CBD oil.

“If life gets tough kids, just snort some heroin. You'll be flying high and right as rain.”
And get paid well by an “elite” university to do it. We live in a clown world, one which the founding fathers probably didn’t envision themselves fighting for 250 years ago.

The guy sounds like a drug addict who just somehow manages to function fairly well and is simply trying to justify his drug use.
That's exactly what I thought. So he's taking care of his kids when he's high? Or is it when he is on a 16 hour come down?

His life will crash at some point. There is always a crash.

Sure, why not? He's claiming he does a few lines at the end of the night at home by the fire. How does that harm you in any manner?

Silver caps and missing several teeth. How is this guy a Columbia professor? And what is up with older black fellas always having ling arse fingernails?

Yep. And one day he’ll take a little too much and keep taking it a little too long and the withdrawals will be too much to overcome.
