    Cocaine is probably the worst for altering your brain chemistry and leaving it in a mess permanently. Anyone that knows a long time coke head will know this.

    Just watch a Hilary Clinton rant and you will see what I mean, I kid you not, that thing would sniff the lines off the Anfield turf<laugh>

    Well the modern stuff is very different from the original plants that grew wild by an order of many magnitudes... there has been human intervention to make it what it is today.

    (as there has with dogs, cows, sheep, hens and pigs)


    I'm of mixed opinion. I do think that adults should have the right to determine what they do to their own bodies IN THEIR OWN HOMES. I certainly wouldn't want to walk down main street and smell other peoples mj.

    I think it should be legal- but heavily regulated and monitored. Make sure the stuff being sold is of proper quality and doesn't contain unhealthy additives- but limit who and where it can be partook of. Private residents (with no kids present) - OK. Private clubs/bars with a valid license to supply the stuff to be smoked on site... yeah, that's OK too.

    On the street, in a park, in a regular pub, in a restaurant... no.

    / never smoked it (or anything else) myself. An ex of mine who kept trying to get me to try it snuck it into a birthday cake she made me one year... but obviously didn't put enough in because I felt no affect. Would I if it became legal? Maybe... not often though- too many medical side affects to become a regular user.

    I'm not against people using it. I do think it can definitely be addictive to some people. Lots of people say it isn't- but I've had friends who couldn't get through a day without it... there again, to some people alcohol and caffeine can be addictive.

    As long as people are well informed of the hazards (like kids are taught about alcohol/tobacco in school) - it is each individuals choice should they want to use it or not.

    Just like I'm free to chose whether to clog my arteries with a hamburger or not.

    Not sure what Ham means in German, but Bürger means Citizen.
    I agree with your points, but if that is what you are stuffing yourself with, I don't think cannibalism should be condoned even IN YOUR OWN HOME.

    I'm sure you've eaten a frankfurter- a sausage whose style originated in Frankfurt!!!! A Hamburger would be something (or someone) originating from Hamburg. There's also Berliner- a jam doughnut.

    As the American president once said "Ich bin ein Berliner" (I am a jam doughnut).

    I work with children for my job and I've seen first hand how a lot of children have their lives destroyed by social and domestic problems at home - often due to unemployed parents or separation, but it's amazing how often alcohol and/or drugs go hand in hand. Is it a coincidence that most of those I know who (and this is a harsh thing to say) have no hope for their future, live with families associated with such a background? I'm not talking about class A drugs either, I'm talking about anything which could be remotely called a drug including alcohol, prescription pills, cigarettes, weed, anti-depressants, methadone....I have no doubt that there are plenty of recreational drug users who are educated, very sensible and controlled in their use, but there are many who are, simply, stupid and allow their hobby/habbit to affect those around them.

    I don't say stupid loosely. Many have children who are witness to the use of drugs, or at the very least are met by parents and family friends or siblings under the influence, which is, in my opinion, stupid, careless and selfish use.

    Like I said, I work with children, I spend a lot of time around schools and not those in the pleasant leafy suburbs of Liverpool. Lots of children, lots of social workers, lots of families with social or domestic issues and lots of drug use. If they choose to do so, in their own home, screw up their own life if it leads them that way, then so be it. Just don't come near me when you're high/depressed/moronic because I couldn't care less. The second they impact children around them is when I take offense with drug users and it could be something as simple as being too lethargic to make dinner for your son because you've had a few drinks and a joint. Children learn from their parents - which is partly why I say some children simply have no hope for the future. They end up caught up in these worlds.

    Legalizing drugs might have benefits, but would continue to screw up the lives of others. Until users are responsible enough to do whatever they do away from others (particularly minors), and sadly there are many irresponsible or stupid people, then I can't agree with legalizing more drugs.

    I, personally, would flat ban pretty much everything including the Governments' precious cigarettes and all the tax that brings so as to avoid grey areas and decisions being made on who's responsible or not, but that'll never happen.

    You're confusing the issues of dead heads breeding and their addictions for me there.

    You're advocating blanket legislation being driven by the lowest common denominator i.e. the scrag ends who can barely cope with breathing let alone any form of social or moral responsibility.

    The kind of people you're describing shouldn't be allowed to keep a dog, let alone reproduce.

    One thing we can't have is alcohol being legal and weed/ecstacy being illegal. The latter (if pure, which they would be if legal) are far safer, with weed only increasing risk of psychosis after heavy and prolonged use by those with genetic predisposition to psychotic diseases. It's really hypocritical, no doubt if alcohol had just been discovered today it would be a class A drug. Legalise those, I see no reason to legalise the likes of cocaine or heroin though, both often give acute and chronic toxicity. I do agree with decriminalizing every drug though, users are not criminals, sellers are. Some will hate Russel Brand but his stance on drugs, having been on both sides of the spectrum, are spot on. Users should be helped, not punished. Anyone who is in the right state of mind would never want to take heroin anyway, we should help drug addicts get to the right state of mind, rather than punishing them and make their problem even worse.
