spell check said:that doesnt really make sense
are you saying obesity/weight problems and associated health issues like heart disease don't effect "the whole population"
It's quite a leap to assume that there is a definite progression from experimentation to addiction (or from use to abuse).Genesys said:Essentially I was making the point that laws exist to regulate the use of drugs, including alcohol, because of the way that drug use can effect people's rational judgement. They might make a rational decision to try it the first time, but once they are addicted, and their health is drastically effected, they are no longer excercising rational judgement. The truth is that these drugs make people lose control, and so other means of controlling them have to be put in place.
Morphine would not have been found if it wasn't for heroine. Just because people abuse drugs, doesn't make them useful. Marajuana has some medicinal properties if used appropriately, even though it too can be abused.jezzmo said:Oh and we should get rid of every single drop of alcohol and every single drug, including plant extracts.

I think everyone should watch that episode of the simpsons where Homer is prescribed medicinal marajuana.....Satire makes us see things clearly.
there was a crime drop recently due to heroin rather than the police and then cocaine became hip and hmm I forget the rest of the articleabsolution* said:Agreed.
Ive always supported legalisation of a few illegal drugs, hallucinogens and marijuana being two of those. Rest should be regulated.
Hahaha...my bad. Thought it was the other way around. Ah well... basic idea still stands.Xayma said:Umm guess again.
Heroin was derived from Morphine not the other way around.
