Solution: Don't take them then. I might want to take hard drugs that are harmful to me, what business is it of yours?

Oh and tobacco and alcohol are incapable of doing harm to the human body?
Anything, and I mean ANYTHING in excess will do harm to the human body. Anything.
My cat's addicted to weeds. No, seriously, she will go outside and eat all the weeds in the flower bed and then puke them up on the carpet when she comes back inside the house. In order to keep her addiction going, I have to live with the fact that cats do that "in order to make themselves feel better."
There is quite a debate over here at the moment concerning drugs like ecstasy. One of the drug campaigners went to a rave, and so all the media is all over her for being controversial and shit, making comments like its safer to be at a rave with ecstasy than at a pub/nightclub with alcohol. The anti drug lot are apparently full of themselves and totally ignorant in this argument, they are pulling out rubbish to support their claims that it should stay illegal because of the consequences and so on, yet they are too stubborn to attend a rave themselves to see what the circumstances are that people are taking them.
The drug campaigner is also trying to make drug testing kits available for those who do take drugs, while the other side are arguing that such a suggestion is irresponsible 😬 Its funny to see them ignore a request for education and safety in the situation when people would use drugs, but they are all for increasing sex education in schools 😬
If they are made legal, its no different than now, except at least people will be able to buy legit stuff and the government can monitor the drugs and send out appropriate education about it. What harm would come from making it legal, only those who want to take them will take them anyway, same as now. Tobacco and alcohol are legal, and not everyone uses those, why is the government so afraid of legalizing drugs ffs.
Its been pissing me off the last few days because they continually target rave scenes as being heavy drug scenes and there are plenty of people who dont take drugs at raves, and the one time someone actually goes in to see what its about they get negative responses.

....why.....🤨....
The simplest solution to this is; If you don't want any part of drugs, don't take drugs. You don't automatically have to become a drug addict just because they are legalised.
I swear people believe that will happen. Drugs legalised and everyone becomes a user, although it would be up to them. Perhaps people shouldn't go to jail for using a substance on themselves...maybe...

Why is that an issue are you racist?
The main issue against drugs is that they impair your judgement. Tobacco....not so much....alcohol...oh yeah. Its just that these drugs have become societally accepted.
They still can have very negative health consequences.
I'm not sure about the heroin, weed, alcohol, or any of that other sh*t, but many prescription drugs do not alter your judgment any more than a tobacco "High," except only it lasts a lot longer. What are some of the views on those?
Considering how much the usage has boomed over the past decade, I'm surprised it's not a bigger part of this discussion.
Take for instance the drug gammahydroxybutyrate...a small amount of that drug can work wonders, but an overdose..well, I dont need to tell you the consequences...
weve got enough dead bodies on a cruise liner for that story...and thats just when the legalization of drugs hasnt been thought about. Imagine what will happen if it is legalized..
