The difference being don't make ignorant and arrogant assumptions based on 'little' knowledge I have on you.
The irony...

No point in using logic and common sense to some in this thread, it would be wasted. Not 'wasted' as in the effects of drug use, obviously.

You banned me once for calling you arrogant Russ remember oh and you have called me a drug addict

2. More people will be able to afford to use as it is cheaper
3. Some people who already use will use more now as it more affordable.
So how can this not increase use and cause more problems?

1 read what I wrote. I clearly said decriminalised / legalised I am not saying I want all drugs legal
2 people can afford it now plenty of people spend plenty
3 maybe but at least the money wont be going into the hands of criminals

I'd expect crime would also go up if more people get addicted and with the way things are going then add cheap drugs and poverty / crime then I'd say it could well be a recipe for disaster.

it is already there and the drugs are dirty meaning more people are likely to have problems with the dose or mix
