FierceMild wrote: » I hate this attitude. There is no objective line between "hard" and "soft" drugs. You don't treat drug problems by "stamping them out". You do it by education and treatment of addicts. I like a spliff as well, and am in favour of legalization but to say that weed is harmless and non-addictive is a fallacy.

I want weed a natural plant to be legalized ,so the Police can put their resources in stamping out the hard stuff . B.T.W. I dont even use weed ,but if i suffered from certain medical conditions i might try it .

Still, it might be a boon for all those poor cocanistas eeking out a living in the Amazon if they get paid a decent wage for a legitimate job and possibly put a curb on the pollution of the Amazon river. It might prove a boost to the Afghani economy too and take some of those farmers out of the stone age, hmmm could be a whole new stone age really. There'd also be some serious research in to the effects of these drugs, both the positive and the negative then we'd have a better understanding of safe dosage and that'd mean less "acid casualties." Of course that's all just too terrible to imagine and society would surely crumble!

B.A._Baracus wrote: » Never really thought about this until now. But what would making drugs legal actually do? On paper you would think crime assoicated with drugs would go down. But would it? You would be legalising scumbags. Take all the drug dealers in Ireland who make good to really good money selling cocaine. If coke got legal they are hardly going to pack it up and say "Got to get a job in Tesco now" - nah. They'll become legal sellers. And once the government gets their grubby little fingers involved through VAT thats going to supply the need to illegally import the drug as well (to make more money) Not to mention the government would have restrictions on what exactly goes into the drug. So it would be weak coke. Also supporting the importation of higher quality coke So when you think about it what would making the drug legal actual do?

And there would be many different strengths to choose from, not just weak coke. Plus it would be unadulterated from research chemicals and other ****e. (alot of the stuff being passed off as coke these days is very cheap RC's like drone, or weak coke cut with drone) But you may be right like similar in the states with weed since it became legal, its still being sold illegally, but much cheaper then from the weed dispensaries.. so it wouldnt completely eliminate street level dealers. But people would have a much "healthier" option from unadulterated ****e.
