I smoke weed but I don't do drugs.

I smoke weed and do drugs

@pratikh I'm sorry but that is a dumb story about why drugs should be legal.

[pratikh]

I don't do any drugs... just drink once in a while. But one time I had a really bad cough, so bad that I went to the hospital for it. They gave me a prescription cough medicine that had an opiate in it.

My cough went away in a couple of days but I had about half the medicine bottle left, so on weekends I would take a small sip and space the fuck out. It was glorious. I didn't go on any trips or anything, just stared at the sky.

So that's my one drug story and why I think drugs should be legal.

41 people have never done drugs or really sucked at doing drugs

"It boils down to old fucks vote" ... That's what it boils down to..

I can put on a Bob Marley shirt, go to bar and in 5 minutes have someone offer to sell to me.

But I am a medical professional. So I choose not to dull my memory. So I choose voluntarily to not get high, even though I love weed.

That's how adults do things. Not because laws tell them what's right or wrong, but because they want to do the right thing instinctively.

Our government is failing to make weed unavailable, and it's failing to trust responsible adults to make good decisions.

All drugs should be legal, when a drug is made illegal the government forfeits all control over the substance to criminal producers. There will always be people who try hard drugs, and better that they're regulated than left to criminals.

@madtownband Drug prohibition creates criminals, not drugs. When was the last time you heard someone bootlegging ethanol? I'll tell you when: in the good ole days of alcohol prohibition.

@YourFavPissStain oh you speak in catchphrases! yayyyy no individuality it's cool!!!!

[khazal12]

@madtownband If you legalize drugs, you regulate them, they become safer to use because there will be more education on dosing so less OD's, you put an age limit and put them behind a counter where children cannot directly buy them (like they can now). Plus do you think that more people will do drugs if it's legal? Since you like statistics 41% of Americans have admitted to using marijuana, as opposed to 19.5% of Dutch people in a place where it is essentially decriminalized and accepted.
