All drugs? Seems shady. Even Meth? That shit is fucked.
Ill all for legal weed but all drugs.... I donno.
Sound shady, huh? Give me a logical reason of WHY it should it sound shady. It sound shady because since you were born you are persuaded that drugs are bad for you AND BECAUSE OF THAT they should be prohibited. Why shouldn't it be legally possible to choose to use them or not? Look at that this way: the prohibition of drugs barely affects your choice, in most places you can always find a dealer and buy some. Another thing is what is stated in this article (and which is one of the most important claims of libertarianism): "The role of the authorities in a legally-constituted state is to protect citizens against attacks from others, not against themselves."
The reason of why something like that would never happen is, as to legalize drugs in just one country you would need practically the whole world to become more open minded (not to have the country's image destroyed by international criticism). A good quote to support this is:
The other paradox is that with these so-called champions of the rational, any rational debate on drugs is impossible. To paraphrase Timothy Leary, we can say that drugs are substances that induce irrational, delirious behaviour amongst those who never take them.
you overlooked the whole addiction to drugs thing.
even if they are legalized, drug addicts will still have to PAY to get their druggos. They'll still keep stealing to pay for their drugs, which are legal anyway.
noone who does anything more than marijuana is a smart, responsible person. plenty of people smoke weed, and turn out to be completely fine, normal functioning people.. Most people who turn to cocaine, heroine, shrooms (the least harmful, i think in the REAL drugs), and bad drugs like that are idiots.. they end up in rehab, sleeping in a park in NYC in old rags and newspapers, or in the subways telling peple their sad lifestories to get some change, so they can buy some drugs, or 6 feet below the ground (dead you tards). i agree, some people can keep their normal lives, and do some party drugs, and have a good time. but they are the resopnsobile people. most people who are thrill seekers or just live life to the "fullest" will do some weird things to get money to buy drugs. and making it legal, will make it lower priced...which means that they'll still have to get money somehow...they can just get more for their money...growing their addiction towards the drug.
sure, ALL drugs are legal in mexico....look at mexico now.
just my two cents towards legalizing all drugs.
