Re: Drug law reform
One point I want to make is that yes I drink alcohol but I don't misuse it..and I do resent recent attempts to use price increases to control the use of alcohol.
Now I'm fairly certain that there are those who use recreational drugs who have self control to the point that they can hold down a job,maintain their life just as I do and can take it or leave it just as I do with alcohol.I'm pretty sure that not everyone becomes a ravening addict who uses drugs..
Also I'm pretty sure that it's not the drugs that ruin peoples lives..it's what they have to do to maintain a habit that does that.It's the illegality that sucks them in and spits them out.
If tobacco is ever banned I'm pretty certain that those addicted to it will find themselves doing illegal acts to maintain their addiction.Same with alcohol.
What I want to do is remove the crime that has become associated with drugs or rather reduce it.Something that's not going to happen with the present system.
