War On Drugs has now cost the US $1 Trillion

[QUOTE="blackngold29"]I wonder if he supports giving everyone access drugs?blackngold29

Ending the War on Drugs does not mean legalizing drugs.. This point fell on its face right from the beginning.. The point being is it has become a money pit, it has greatly contributed to teh overflowing of our prisons, and it has not prevented drugs from being easily attainable in most areas.

The US has absolutely insane drug laws, I'm so glad I don't live there. If someone tried some drugs they'd be doing something illegal, sure, but I wouldn't say that person is a criminal. They don't need to be put in jail with violent / dangerous members of society.

That's pretty much like throwing a kid in jail because he hit the booze before he was 18. He's not doing anything wrong or hurting anyone, he just wants to have a good time!

I always find it rather insane when I hear people saying they want drugs legalized. And not just marijuana, ALL drugs.

Yeah...that couldn't POSSIBLY have any adverse side effects.

Durgs should never be legal. God for bid if they were legal . You should only get it from a Medical doctor . Durgs like crack should never be in the hand of people . People think week is safe to smoke. But it's not its bad your your brain and your lugs

I have ;)

That's a far cry of what was spent on nuclear weapons. But a las, we really need to blow up the world 7 times over.Stevo_the_gamer

or we just need to blow a gap between us and other countries!

I feel like HARDcore drugs should not be legalized, but I definitely think weed should be legalized.

I mean, I hate what it does to people, but they are choosing to screw themselves over, so let them do that.

Make it like alcohol where you have to be 21 to have it.

And your reasoning is.....?

Legalize ALL drugs, that's right, all of them.

Yep, and say bye-bye to civilization.

Atleast legalize weed and marijuana. Alcohol is arguably worse. here in the Netherlands weed is legal and we got no problems.

Aren't weed and marijuana the same thing?

You mean that which I never did? I asked you for some proof, instead of just saying it.

The marijuana debate has been beaten to death on this forum. I didn't really feel like digging up links i've posted several times in the past, and i was kind of hoping after reading the facts so many times people might have actually started listening. No big deal really, if i'm going to spend time doing research it might as well be on a topic i'm interested in :D

Oh and I hope you all know the true reason why the drug war started. Nixon wanted to end all of his vietnam war protesters(most of whom were hippies) so he thought if he started jailing all the marijuana and drug users then the protesting would stop.Stanley09

I think we should legalize all drugs, even the harder stuff like cocaine and heroin etc.

Um, most of the war on drugs is not centered around weed. You want to legalize heroin and cocaine?

sonicare

The USE of heroin and cocaine? Sure. People who want to use heroin and cocaine will use it anyway.

But that doesn't mean that DISTRIBUTING heroin and cocaine needs to be illegal, or that distributing marijuana needs to be illegal.

Why can't we keep going after dealers and stop prosecuting users?

Yeah, we need to legalize this stuff already...

Someone who's high is just as dangerous behind the wheel as someone who is drunk.

I don't see the point in adding something else for the cops and motorists to worry about.

airshocker

Uh...if someone is already willing to use illegal drugs, what is stopping them from going out and driving while under the influence of such drugs?

[QUOTE="SgtKevali"]

Why shouldn't those drugs be legal?

Most heroin overdoses are caused by the illegal drug market. Let's say that I am a typical heroin user. I buy a product that is usually 40-60% heroin and the rest is filler or whatever it's cut with. I get used to taking a certain dose of this heroin in order to achieve a certain effect. Now let's say I am at party, and a guy there has some heroin. His product is much better than what I am used to and is 95% actual heroin. I cannot possibly know this, as street heroin doesn't come with a nutritional facts label. I shoot up my usual dose and I die because I took much more than I intended. Decriminalizing and regulating heroin sales would solve this problem.

Also, do you really think someone should be arrested for shooting up? Do you think they belong in jail, alongside murderers and rapists, because they use a substance that feels damn good? I'm not saying heroin isn't dangerous and addictive, but if you ask me, turning users into criminals doesn't help them. A rehab center would probably do them far more good than a prison cell.

Finally, mdma (ecstasy) is one of the safest drugs out there when used in moderation. I've honestly never heard of what you mentioned, but even if it were the case, wouldn't it be easier to know if you had that predisposition if you could speak openly and honestly with doctors about it, or maybe even have them run a controlled test dosage to gauge your reaction?

after browsing for a bit this is what I came across.. [QUOTE="Fuzzy_Bear123"] [QUOTE="kidsmelly"]

Can we just legalize weed now this is just getting stupid.

EMOEVOLUTION

SgtKevali

People who use drugs have a little care or thought of other people.. social problems would still exist.. physical violence, public intoxications, disorderly conduct, all of these things would go hand in hand with allowing people legal access to drugs. The crime rate in the United States would stay relatively the same. You'd still be paying the same amount of taxes. The drug cartel wouldn't go any where because they'd be able to produce a tax free product. Where as approved drug companies would have to pay numerous taxes to the government.. and the consumer themselves would have to pay taxes apon purchase.

So, yeah.. it's a nice idea to say.. lets just legalize drug use.. it'll solve the problem. Well, not really. It'll just make new ones.

[QUOTE="needled24-7"]

if you don't already worry about people driving high, then you better start now. tons of people do it, and while i don't think it is a good idea, it's nowhere near the same as driving while drunk. honestly, you probably wouldn't even know if someone was driving high.

airshocker

I'm a cop. It's not hard to tell if someone is driving under the influence.

But either way, that's what blood tests are for if I can't be 100% sure.

And it's the exact same as driving drunk. Your motor skills are just as bad.
