Psychedelic drugs created an entire genre of culture -- psychedelic art and music were landmarks of the '70s, and neo-psychedelic culture can still be seen today. Importantly, psychedelic drugs induced an altered state of consciousness in users, something unique among drugs (other drugs just exaggerate existing states.)
By prohibiting use of psychedelic drugs, the government is prohibiting literally a state of mind. This is real thought-crime. The government is keeping you from altering the way that you think. How about freedom of thought?
