I generally don't believe in prohibition, but I think we should keep the hard drugs illegal for a very simple reason.

Alcohol.

People make fucked up decisions when they are drunk, and if they could buy an 8 ball every time they've had a six pack, you'd have a ridiculous number of otherwise functional people who'd be strung out and unproductive.

My buddy, engineer, beautiful wife, adorable children. He's done coke a handful of times, but never enough to have a dealer or really know others who do it regularly. Every time he has more than 5-6 beers, he's talking about coke, looking for coke, trying to talk me into hiring a hooker so he can buy coke from her. It's terrible.

This is never an issue with him sober.

If he had legal access to coke, I'm convinced his life would be ruined.

Alcohol is one onf the most destructive and not to mention oldest drugs on the planet.

I see you're reason though.

But people crave what they can't have.

And if you can't get your own hooker then dammit you don't need no coke anyways !!!

Lol. That's pretty funny actually. I've done coke and every time I have I've gotten really sick of it fast. It really burns me out. Like its fun for a night but then I never wanna see it again. I'm still think we should just let people have at it. I'm sure people will end up killing themselves but honestly do we have a shortage on humans? I sound insensative but I really DO believe in being able to do what you want if your not hurting someone else. I think we have the inherent human right to be a fuck head if we want and screw up. I know I have done this my fair share an I think the government can fuck off.
