Before I start this I suppose I should clear up a few things. I am not a drug addict. Nor do I advocate the use of drugs to others. And, I am not for the legalization of any drug other than marijuana and psilocybin... more so marijuana of course.

I think the use of drugs is fine in variation. Ive done a few drugs in my day, which is pretty much everything but the hard stuff like crack, heroin, pcp, meth, etc.. And no, I am not proud or ashamed of that fact. Ive always veiwed my use of drugs as recreational. Something fun to do every now and again. Kind of like taking a vacation on your couch, or having a little extra fun at the club without spending all your damned money on booze.

The problem with this is that some people love to take shit to the extreme. One of my old friends for example, used to take E about everday after he first started experimenting with it. I also knew a guy who was the same with shrooms, and to me thats just nuts. I currently also have a few friends who are what I would call "addicts" to substances whether it be coke, weed, or alcohol. Why would anyone want to be that out of it all the time. It seems like it totally defeats the purpose to me because you wouldn't appreciate the stuff as much. Plus you are now spending all sorts of extra money.

Drugs are not good for you as everyone knows or should know. However, there are far worse things one can do to oneself. I just get so sick of being in a conversations with people about this, and one or two of them look at me like I'm a bad person for ever trying any drugs in the first place. Or they think I'm trying to say: "Yeah I did it and I'm fine, so you should go try it too.". People need to wake up. This country looks down so hard on people who use and/or abuse drugs and act like they are some of the worste kinds of criminals. Yet there are worse criminals running our government. Worse criminals running many big leading buisinesses and taking jobs away from people.

I really hate this country sometimes. BRING IT ON ASHCROFT!!!

I say legalize it all, and let Darwin sort everyone out.  Those that OD and can't control their use don't have kids, the population gets smarter.

I also prefer weed to alcohol.  I've never met a violent pothead, all they want to do is eat a lot and smoke some more.

Hells yeah. I prefer weed also now. I used to drink alot. But I got sick of doing dumb shit, and being irrational in a conversation while drunk. So I just said to hell with it one day and decided to be a weekend warrior as far as drinking goes... if even that anymore. Ive only met a couple violent potheads in my day... but they were violent from the start, so you can't blame the weed.

i think weed just makes you stupid..its kinda of a trippy feeling. ugh. how can people love that feeling so much that they just have to smoke EVERYDAY! gosh. i dont think i'd put up w/ that mess.

but legalizing all drugs...would kind be a good thing...somehow. i mean people,..can make money..cant they? and it might actually do us some good..err...? lol.

I agree that illegal drugs should be made legal. I mean why not? People get a rush just out of knowing they could get some form of punishment for doing something illegal, stupid and possibly life threatening. So why not make it illegal, it takes the rush out of possibly getting caught, and if that element is taken out of the equation, people will stop doing it and move on to the next fad to see what happens.
