"Drugs themselves aren't addictive"

Crack and Meth didn't get the memo

How many of discussants on this forum would be ready to argue that OBL was a misunderstood, a martyr, and his reasons for what did were well justified?

Weed is far less harmful than alcohol!

You can't die off weed (well in the same way a chocolate bar can't kill a non allergic person, it can but not directly) it also doesn't encourage the insane amounts of violence you see in our City centres.

Drunks can be okay, but they can also be thugs or pigs, a stoner is generally just a calmer happier version of themselves. Plus stoners don't usually make their families lives complete miserys...

Not that that is everyone but most people seem to act much worse on alcohol than weed.

You don't really get the inhibition lowering effect.

I think we should decriminalise drugs, such as Portugal has down successfully. Drug use down across the board, less money wasted on policing, no more criminalising of people who aren't hurting anyone and I imagine it would give less chance for mistrust to grow between police and the youths.

It's pretty much a win, win, win.

One gram of heroin, two grams of cocaine, 25 grams of marijuana leaves or five grams of hashish: These are the drug quantities one can legally purchase and possess in Portugal, carrying them through the streets of Lisbon in a pants pocket, say, without fear of repercussion. MDMA -- the active ingredient in ecstasy -- and amphetamines -- including speed and meth -- can also be possessed in amounts up to one gram. That's roughly enough of each of these drugs to last 10 days.
