My feeling is that the purpose of government is to protect the welfare and liberty of its people. Drugs are not a matter of "It's my life, I can do what I want." They are not dangerous only to those who use them, but also to the people around the user. They can destroy multiple lives. That's why they are illegal. By your reasoning, government restrictions on drunk driving are anti-freedom. But the reason the restrictions are there is that drunk driving impinges on the liberty of those people who you endanger by driving. Drugs are the same.
