Exactly, if you legalize drugs, you at least
de-criminalize them and you can control what is being used.
I know a lot of people dying or really fucking themselves up
by using dirty heroin. If it was legal and had to pass
severe tests before hitting the racks, at least this aspect
would be improved. As for the rest, people should really be
responsible for what they do: you drive drunk, you lose your
licence. The same could apply to heroin etc.

meho thats another point!
the health control in drug is very important
at the moment the cut them with worse stuff than the drug it
self

in holand (again) you can have your drug tested to see if
they are ok or not

by the way the heroin case is abit more difficult to treat
than that

raimons that can happen every where.
in brasil you find 5 year old smoking crack. and the drug
is ilegal over there.

to stop consume of drug you have to help the people in other
ways not banning the drug!!

I don't use drugs, and have no wish to, I don't think they'd
do anything for me. But I have some friends who really love
heroin, and even prefer synthetic drugs like methadone and
throdone. I mean, they don't have the money to be proper
adicts, but really LOVE to do these things when they can.
Now, each of them is a potential convict if the police gets
the tip or accidently runs in them. Also, any of them could
die of dirty heroin. Legalisation would settle this. But how
that would affect our whole community I don't know. But if
alcohol is legal, why should heroin be ilegal, it kills
faster if anything, it's less of a social problem and by
having it legalised you could have clear records on users
and would know if any of them could pose any kind of threat
to the society.

By the way, cars kill more people than heroin, wars or aids
(at least in the west) but they' re not only legal but the
whole system is based on their existance (read DeRougemont
about this).

Jand: you're joking or what?
I wouldn't give any of my cats any substances that I'm not
sure of what they'd do to them. Humans at least think they
have a free will.

snus is a perfect substitute for smokes.
its like chewing tobbacco but instead of chewing it you put
it under your lipp.
very tasty and you can choose diffrent flavours. very
popular here in sweden

All drugs are shit. If your life is so empty that you need
drugs to relieve the boredom, then you have a problem. And
drugs won't solve it.

saying fuck drugs is as one-dimensional as saying all
niggers are filthy animals. Drugs do different things to
different people. Some handle them well, some don't, and
some, again lose or gain control with time... I was never
interested in taking drugs, but I can't agree that everyone
taking them has a problem. That's typical social-marketing
propaganda. A large number of people taking drugs have a
problem if you judge them from your own social frame, and
that's OK as long as you don't consider it to be the only
relevant social frame there is.

I have taken them. And I can't see any reason to take them
other than to relieve boredom, or to provide a false sense
of confidence or well-being. Which is pretty pathetic in my
opinion.

But you have to put it in perspective.
I don't take E, but my work involves drug statistics and
legislation, and believe it or not, if you take E you still
have more chance of dying crossing the road than from the E
(statistically)...

of course it's pathetic, but to tar everyone with the same

I don't care if people do them. I don't assume anyone who
does drugs has a problem or something. But they're better
off without them, I wish they'd find a better way to
entertain themselves. Dividing the people I know into DRUG
USERS and NON DRUG USERS, it's painfully obvious who the
stupider half is (with exceptions, obviously).

OK, call me ignorant. But I know far too many people who
take drugs and have very little else in their lives. All of
my no drug-using friends are far more dynamic individuals,
with much more about them. Drugs are bad for the soul and
will eat away at you. And I don't think there's any
avoiding that if you take them on a regular basis. I'm not
asking you to agree with me, it's just my opinion. I think
that people who take drugs frequently tend to me more boring
and suffer far more problems with their personality.

But I agree with Nacmat, music is kind of a drug for me: I
have a habit, I have a regular need, I spend most of my
money on it, I talk about it most of my waking hours and
that's about the only topic I'm interested in, I have
withdrawal symptoms when detached from music, I used to
steal to buy misuc, I frequently don't eat just to save
money that I spend on music, I need to listen to music even
when it doesn't seem to give me any pleasure... The same
description goes for drugs.

Oh yeah, music is MY drug. It's all I care about, I'm
addicted, and I'd kill myself if I didn't have it. I need
it! Stimulates my brain enough, I don't need chemicals when
I have sound waves invading my ears.

I don't pay for it anymore, though... the internet is my
drug dealer, and it pumps me full of MP3s.

I think Ophecks has got it right about drugs.......they do
just amplify personality flaws. Yeah, SOME people have been
creative on them, but not many. It hardly justifies the
lives that are wasted on drugs. And I don't just mean
people dying. So many people waste their lives by just
smoking weed. It makes people so lethargic, dull and
happy-to-do-nothing.

jesus, how the fuck do you know that "not many" are more
creative on drugs? my old friends and i regularly took acid
and created music, taro cards, qabbalistic pathways,
magickal theories... drugs can open up your mind, make you
think on a higher level - we are not talking about skank or
crank or angel dust here, but the tried and tested
psychadelics -- haven't you seen the countercultural
research? i would say a nation of trippers grokking and
tripping on life would be a better place than a nation of
tv-addicted zombies imbibing the stinking corpse of
media/corporate controlled government.

most of the psychic ills in this world are not down to
amplified character flaws, but the amplified malaise of the
deathly society we have been shit into - heal society and we
heal ourselves.

I only took cannabis because everyone says it makes music
sound better. But then they force me to listen to smashing
pumpkins (which i find dull) so it seems almost pointless.

On the debate, drug illegalisation is reletively new, old
cultures had it as a main trade comodity, sort of like food
or animals or humans. The aztec culture is based on peyote.
