I have never used any illegal drugs or dangerous currently legal recreational substances such as tobacco or alcohol and I never will.
So, you are hardly in a position to make an informed judgement or even an 'educated' claim in regards to the subject, correct ?
Drugs do not put you on a bridge to clarity or freedom, only to deception and death.
This obviously stems from your in-depth experiences, correct ?
It is simply a lie to suggest Marijuana doesn't kill people. Overdose may not kill you directly, but addiction is often linked with suicide and depression and addicted individuals make terrible choices because of their drug use.
Unfortunately, marijuana has a grand total of ZERO of the effects you describe above, most of all, the ability to 'overdose'.
I can only hope your government does help you......
Call me crazy, but.... REPUBLICAN AMERICAN much ? ....'Red State' ?
....... in denial of how little control you truly have.
..as opposed to being in denial of how little personal freedom you truly have ?
Countries that have made the terrible decision to tolerate their use have been confronted with reality and been forced to back down.
I am going to guess that you don't travel much ?
Sure, I will take the 'gimme' answer and spew Amsterdam..... 99.99% 'Pot-Heads', 0.01% Crack/Cocaine/Meth-heads.
You should really look at some statistics in regards to crime, quality of life and State Sponsored Drug Rehabilitation and Support programs there.
It is a lie to suggest prohibition does not work.
It depends what the desired outcome of 'WORKED' is, in your statement.
Does it work, to allow for free markets to emerge and the accumulation of wealth by opportunists at large ? THEN YES, it works.
You are clearly a 'Red State' American who suffers from something worse than drugs could ever accomplish.
It is quite comforting to see a 'statistic' and 'stereotype' first hand. As much as I applaud your efforts to spread your conservative views, I feel sorry for the boring, yet predictable life that you must have led.
Wow.
