Drugs

[SysTaMatIcS]

i would have , if i had an unlimited amount of money , the problem occurs when you run out of money and have the bad need for some drugs.

[mr_j]

using a drug once a year masalan, whatever the kind of drug is, even cocaine, won't harm you, you can just get high once a year and not develop an addiction or side effects rules and laws are there because humans are like children, they cannot be trusted, few people smoke cocaine once a year, it is very likely they will use it again shortly, so the law is there to prevent you from ever using drugs. if you believe you have enough self control and judgment and you are well educated on the matter, you can get high once in a lifetime but for the majority of people no!

I would rather not try to use drugs, because I do not want to know what I am missing

as for my views on addicts, any addicts not just addicts of forbidden drugs, they have no self control, I know a few smoking addicts, some of them cannot stay in a class for one hour straight without having to go out and smoke(some of these people are teachers) yesterday a person I know had to walk out of the wedding because he had to smoke. they are less in control of their actions

In the U.S

85 000 people die from alcohol each year, should alcohol be illegal?
5800 people die from caffeine each year, should coffee and pepsi be illegal? (waiting for mr_j to reply here)
7600 people die from Aspirin/Ibuprofen each year!!, should they be illegal?

While on the other hand:
2390 people die from cocaine each year, why is it illegal?
2147 people die from heroin each year, why is it illegal?
0 people die from marijuana each year, and it's illegal!!

edit: In 2007, Missouri alone had 9358 deaths as a result of smoking. Should smoking be illegal as well?

[MORPHEUSP]

to sum it up, drug use and all of this garbage is just the make the people forget about the flaws and the corruption in the society, i bet at least half of the government is involved with distributing drugs so the people will always be idol, and look thorough history, tobacco, alcohol, drugs, are all the product that derailed angry people opposing their governments. They want to transform you from a thinking person that cares and want to reform the society to a drugtaker so you cant get in their way and their masterplans of corruption.

As for smoking just one i say enno ma32oul el wa7ad ya3mela iza kein masaln bi amesterdam aw chi ma7al heik 3am bi jarreb khbar, bass wala marra fekkaret rou7 fattech 3a mari w ana kermel jarreba ased. just live your life eventually you'll experience everything and there is no reason to rush it

One issue you've missed.

Most people die because of what they eat. It is their responsibility about the cause of death. From oil, to butter, colorant, and preservatives. Whether you prepare your own food, or purchase it. Most foods now contain labels of nutritional facts. Hence, it is no longer the responsibility of the production company, but of yours. Unless there is/are hidden ingredients.

But i'm not referring to the fact that they're dying. I'm referring to the fact that the illegal items cause even less deaths than the legal ones do. But still alcohol or smoking or considered legal when they're even more dangerous and cause more deaths than cocaine or heroin..

That was my point.

People are "killing" themselves through what they're eating, and what is considered "legal", and actually been warned or notified about.

whats ur limit of "enjoying"... ok here we go, wen u were a 3 yrs kid, a teddy bear would do the job, by 5 mcdonalds would b ur best experience, and as u get older nd older, girls enter ur unsatisfied "joy" ,sex will help after some time, then comes alcohol....thats where u should stop nd draw ur limit line, cze wen u reach marijuana, cocaine will show up later, nd then comes heroin, nd all the other "1 way tickets" , i still got some respect 4 cocaine though,it's the classy drug, the good evil, gives a lot of energy,self confidence, sex booster... bt nt 4 me, thx

The thing about alcohol is that it is in fact a part of regular socializing for a lot of people.Recreational drinking only adds to the fun during certain events.
Also people who don't have actual drinking problems usually know when to stop.
I think illegalizing alcohol would be hard for those very reasons,but that in itself is futile.
If those reasons are enough for keeping it legal,then what keeps us from legalizing cocaine twice a year to enhance socialization?
We have to keep in mind though,that those who lead to other people's deaths under the effect of alcohol get penalized for it.
As for the caffeine,it could be healthy in certain doses:

Why exactly did they die from aspirin?
Smoking is banned in public areas in some countries,but even that doesn't cancel out the effect of second hand smoke to those directly around them.
Yes I'm thinking out loud

I think you missed his point,people actually have died due to alcohol,smoking,caffeine and even aspirin despite them being legal.On the other hand,marijuana killed none and is illegal.See ?
I don't know,someone could even die from consuming too much water.
Maybe knowing when enough is enough is the key?
(still avoiding any religious implications )
