Make drug use legal. Hmmm... We'll solve our problems by making
extremely addictive drugs like heroin legal? This country is going
down the tubes fast.

Drugs have been illegal for close to a century and usage has not
changed much. Certainly it goes up and down but not in relation to the
effects of the law.

and ?

Are you suggesting that therefore they should be made legal?

What the hell. May as well decriminalize rape, murder, assault and
virtually every other illegal act as well. They've been around for eons
despite laws against them.

I think there's enough evidence that suggests that pot is relatively
harmless when responsibly used for medical or recreational purposes.
Deaths due to pot overdose are .... zero. You don't find potheads
stealing, robbing or assaulting to get their weed, driven by a physical addiction.

Not so with the addictive drugs like heroin.

Murder, rape and assault are not crimes against yourself. Same reason I do
not care about gay marriage. Personal choice.

Heroin addicts have a significant impact on others, including
co-workers, friends, family, hospitals, social services and more. We
all pay for the help that many, if not most get.

They need the help. The suppliers/pushers need to be in prison.

Legalizing heroin use doesn't solve a thing.

Pot, I can understand. It's not chemically addictive and is not mind
warping in a permanent way like heroin is.
