WOW... what kind of pot have you been smoking?!

Anyway... all drugs are "mind-altering" - that goes for caffeine just as much as heroin... the effects mearly vary in chemestry and intensity. In my humble opinion, drugs should be legal. I don't believe the government has any place telling people what they can and can't do when it comes to personal vices. Look at how many people are addicted to gambling... how many lives are destroyed by it. But it's legal. What about drugs like tobacco and alcohol? But you also have people who gamble responsibly... drink responsibly... All things are safe within moderation. Drugs destroy so many lives because the people taking them are uneducated, stupid, and completely lacking in will-power. I have personally witnessed the negative effects drugs have on people --- stealing, addiction, prison... But I've also seen people who are wise and use in moderation. It doesn't negatively affect them or their life in any way. ... Drugs can be very benificial, and they can be very dangerous. What to use and how to use them should be the choice and responsibility of the educated individual, not the government.
