Re: Drug law reform

But the doctors and other experts who carried out these two studies did not simply say "drugs bad" for everything.

They looked at a wide range of drugs, legal and illegal, and a range of types of harm, and ranked them accordingly, giving them scores for types of physical harm to the user, social harm to others, and overall harm.

Don't seem to have the bias you say, and as mentioned previously they actually concluded that e.g. alcohol is more harmful than various illegal drugs (including ecstasy). Physically harmful and socially harmful.
