I believe all the soft drugs are legal (I know marijuana and most hallucinogens are)

Only Marijuana is completely legalized, meaning it can be sold in stores and is taxed and regulated. Other drugs are decriminalized meaning we don't put users in jail, but at the same time we don't allow sales. Some people want to change that and bring back the drug war.

Not unless they are also a dealer and/or cause harm to others in some way as a result of said use, but such would be considered a crime of its own whether it be theft or assault or whatever and thus they aren't being jailed just for using the drugs, but for the harmful consequences of said use on others.

Unless we are talking about what kind of meat Atlasians are allowed to eat. (That's not directed at you, of course, but I couldn't resist. )

Well, meat is the body of someoone else.

Yes, but since the consumption of animal meat is generally legal in Atlasia it's extremely nanny-statist to regulate what kind of animals Atlasians are allowed to eat (especially because dogs don't belong to those species that are threatened of extinction).
