SENATE BILL: The Common Sense Drug Reform Act of 2014 (Tabled)

[Napoleon]

This is...anything but common sense. Also, these things are less addictive than energy drinks and less harmful than antidepressants.

[Napoleon]

So, legally, LSD would be on the same level as heroin? That makes no sense to me...

If LSD specifically is the deal-breaker, then I suppose we can keep that decriminalized

It's not really that LSD specifically is the deal-breaker, I guess I should have been more clear. It doesn't make sense to me that both LSD and MDMA, which were both considered soft drugs in the original bill, are now being bumped to the same level as all of the hard drugs except ketamine. What exactly is the reasoning behind that?

There's no obvious reasoning behind any part of this amendment. Absolutely none of X's proposed changes to FL 31.10 are based in evidence, nor are his arguments to date founded on anything other than conjecture and moralizing.

His "common sense" arguments are so out of orbit that I couldn't even find anecdotal evidence to support them. There is either something in the water or Ohio has a truly impressive propaganda machine.

[Napoleon]

Does the GM or AG have any statistics on the rate of heroin overdose deaths and opiate addiction-related crimes (burglaries, robberies, identity theft, etc) since legalization?

Or did it all just magically disappear through internet libertarian fantasies "increased treatment"? After all, there's NO physiological or medical difference between any of these drugs.




Getoffa me you apes! Sarge at arms? I'll give YOU arms! I WAS A SENATOR ONCE......! LEGGO!

Another anti-drug Ohioan...I swear you are all the same. badger

Now heroin isn't really legal, but we aren't incarcerating people for it. Theres a good chance though that you might get stuck in a rehab center for a while. I've had more than three friends die from opiate-related problems and heroin is truly the worst of the worst. I don't think you will ever find "safe and legal" and "heroin" in the same sentence but you're right about the associated crimes from heroin being pretty mucb impossible to contain. Theres an epidemic rigbt now IRL, its scary to watch.
