Yes! Prohibition sees to it that the dangers of drugs are magnified to the point of lethality!
Drugs themselves are neutral ─ but prohibition kills people!
And the fucks perpetuating this murderous obscenity are acting in a criminal manner and should be fucking made to pay for the absolute shite they've
foisted on society for nearly a century . . .
In a anyways decent society they'd be the ones doing hard-labour without parole!!!

From a certain perspective, these people are not contributing anything positive to society. Letting them rot is an effective way of removing them

necessary to protect us from others' stupidity.

Jeeez! That's about as ignorant a comment as is possible to make!

UGH, franklyn that is DISGUSTING! YUCK! that put me off my food, but I guess that's my fault for watching it while eating 
bfesser, those people can't be helped, it's too late for them. they should show this in schools, on television (as advertisments),... to warn people
for whom it isn't too late
I believe legalize it is a good solution for many drugs, often the real damage is done by impurities that come from processing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETGDPlcE-NE
they use leaded gasoline and hardware store chemicals! not to mention how many times it gets mixed with other stuff before one buys it.
If some drugs were legalized, made industrially and sold free of contaminants it would be a lot better.
1)every country can tax them and make big profits, 2)people wouldn't poison themselves with contaminants, 3)it is possible to control how much gets
used,...
all above information is intellectual property of Pyro.  |

<strong>Pulverulescent</strong>, I just don't know which part you're angry about; the part where I was being cynical or the part where I
was being honest?
<strong>watson.fawkes</strong>, fair enough. I don't plan to reply further, really. I just want to know what

That I should have to tell you is bad, by itself ─ you've expressed support for something that is an ongoing US State-sponsored
criminal conspiracy/enterprise which has visited numerous countries around the globe with what amounts to the equivalent of an Holocaust!!!
Innocents butchered, lives ruined, families destroyed, trigger-happy-militarised police forces and the rise of the drug-cartels where low-lifes become
billionaires overnight on the backs of ordinary working people ─ are the 'fruits' of this WOD you voice your support for!!!
And that you don't seem to know anything about the shit that's going down for so long makes you look the complete asshat!!!

I'm a dyed in the wool Libertarian. I'm all for legalization of some drugs, but that being said, there ARE some drugs that should have never seen the
light of day. Is prohibition working? Not in your wildest dreams.

<strong>Pulverulescent</strong>, you're reading way too much into what I wrote—I generally don't make implications. Also, cut
out the <em>argumentum ad hominem</em>, or you'll find your posts in Detritus.

Getting back a little more on topic.
Being raised in a family that accepts responsible use of illicit drugs, I have been given a respect and a bit of an education for this matter. Only
last year I started to gain an interest in chemistry and since its made basic pharmacology and chemistry of drugs more interesting.
I think even without a slight academic interest, if people are educated instead of just being told that *** is illegal and is something to run away
from, it will make lots of precautions that are in place arbitrary. If most drugs were treated sort of like tobacco is treated now ((deterred, but not
illegal) maybe with a little less drama aswell) it would create a healthier culture.
Kind of rambling now. That's just what I got to can in, even though I probably know nothing of the matter; I haven't ever used drugs.

<strong>Pulverulescent</strong>, I don't know what your problem is, but <em>back off</em>. Perhaps your reading comprehension
is lacking, because you clearly don't understand what I've written. My suggestion: stop trying to tell others what to believe or what you think their
views are.
[edit] By the way, I won't tolerate any more of this either:

Senator Feinstein Supports Pot and Cocaine!!
That's right! She is sponsoring a bill that would ban all those "diabolical synthetic drugs". We will still have pot, coke, a bunch of antibiotics
and of course botox. Pfizer is not going to
like this!

Wow, why all the hostility? I am not sure if it is appropriate for me to comment, but I don't see subjective, normative value statements as having
any purpose in science, which should be dealing with objective measures. Pharmacology is an area of professional specialization for me, if that appeal
to authority lends any credence to my view. We can all disagree on values, but shouldn't on data.

Fast forward to time ~ 6:24
www.youtube.com/embed/JsUH8llvTZo
What is not evident in the evening news is that the cold war never really ended it just became privatised.
Before 1980 , Afghanistan produced 0 % of the world's opium. After the US / CIA backed Mujahideen won the Soviet / Afghan war , by 1986 they were
producing 40 % of the worlds heroin supply. By 1999 , they were producing 80 % of the total market supply. Then something unanticipated happened. The
Taliban took control of Afghanistan. By 2000 they had destroyed most of the poppy fields and opium production plummeted from 3000 + tons to perhaps
185 tons , 94 % reduction. On September 9th 2001 , the full plan for invasion of Afghanistan were reviewed by then President Bush. Two days later came
the pretext for invasion when the world trade center was made rubble by Saudi militants. Today , opium production in US controlled Afghanistan ,
provides more than 90 % of the worlds heroin. The strict Muslim code of civil conduct precludes there can ever be the sort of societal decay depicted
in neighboring Russia. So , for who is this heroin intended if it is not to undermine the Islamic nations trafficking it.

Of course drugusers contribute a lot of positive to society. You know youre argument is not valid, why make it? (I wont present the endless list of
famous drugusers now, everybody knows).
What you also dont realize is that 90% of the drugusers are "normal" people, pillars of society, no shit. Half the code which runs the Internet was
probably written on speed and its the better half for sure. Coffee? lol. Start dealing and you are in for some surprises regarding your customers. (I
dont do this anymore btw.).
What you believe doesnt make much sense in any way. Its confused.
And please refrain from helping me (as in your world I classify as addict of course). The worst things in my life were caused by people with good
intentions. People who get off by feeling helpful when they just help their own ego.
You should support legalisation! As some acid might help you with your alcohol problem.
There were good results before it was outlawed.

PS: IIRC "Krokodil" was an OTC medication and the horrible pictures show what you get when you slam pills without extraction. Its the fillers. The
stuff made by HI or hydrogenation is called "Braun" and was the traditional heroin replacement in the eastern block. Without such consequences.

There is also this fairly controlled study amongst technical professionals

[The volunteers] remained firm: LSD absolutely had helped them solve their complex, seemingly intractable problems. But here’s the clincher. After
their 5HT2A neural receptors simmered down, they remained firm: LSD absolutely had helped them solve their complex, seemingly intractable problems.
And the establishment agreed. The 26 men unleashed a slew of widely embraced innovations shortly after their LSD experiences, including a mathematical
theorem for NOR gate circuits, a conceptual model of a photon, a linear electron accelerator beam-steering device, a new design for the vibratory
microtome, a technical improvement of the magnetic tape recorder, blueprints for a private residency and an arts-and-crafts shopping plaza, and a
space probe experiment designed to measure solar properties. Fadiman and his colleagues published these jaw-dropping results and closed shop.

Makes sense; it's certainly true of many clandestinely produced compounds that contaminants are as big a concern as the use of the substance in the
first place. This would seem to be a natural consequence of prohibition, which forces drug cooks to use suboptimal techniques, as well as forcing the
market population into such captivity and desperation that they will tolerate poor product.
Figure 1: Toxic ethanol, available OTC
Alcoholics not giving a shit
By comparison, Llicit substances are also often contaminated. A great deal of ethyl alcohol is intentionally spiked with toxic compounds as part of a
taxation program. Presumably, this discourages rational, informed actors from drinking it. However, for addicts and the mentally ill who don't give a
shit, and children and English-illiterate who don't know any better, this presents an active hazard to vulnerable segments of the population.
Tobacco is also contaminated with radionasties

This chart (originally from Lancet, a respected medical journal) is very informative. Classifying cannabis and other hallucinogens as schedule 1
while heroine is schedule 2 and alcohol is legal makes no sense. I suspect the main reason pot has been so vilified is that the folks that sell
alcohol don't want the competition. Replacing alcohol with pot would probably be better for society. Pot is a much better drug,
(low toxicity, no re-bound), but difficult to make money on.
Another interesting statistic is that there are more visits to the ER from complications of doctor prescribed prescription drugs than all the illegal
drugs combined.
