I completely agree that we should be able to buy any product we want, and people shouldn't go questioning anyone's motivation for purchasing legal items. In states/counties where there are huge meth problems, however (like where my mom lives in Alabama), meth has a huge impact on the population, and really is a huge problem. Pollution, exploding homes, and meth-related violence are pretty common. So, while it sucks that perfectly legal items are being monitored, it really is in the best interest of the towns, and the general non-meth-loving populations who try to make a living there that this stuff be watched.

So is this right? Hell no. But is it justified? Without a doubt.
