Which drugs do you think should be legal for personal use?

[Alcon]

None

so you believe in outlawing alcohol?

Yes, expect for communion.

Why not just outlaw drunkenness?  The religious exception seems to kind of admit the law is overboard in and of itself.

[MK]

Marijuana, but only if my prison reform is in-acted.

Heroin:
- would reduce gang-related violence
- purity would be known (less overdoses)
- addicts won't have to hide the addiction......can get help
- less potent opiates would be more common......more potent opiates would be less common
- Use would decrease

Every time I have done magic mushrooms - it substantially improved my life. Took mushrooms. Analyzed my life on em.  Quit smoking. Stopped being dumb with alcohol. Made my room cleaner than it had ever been. Declared my major.  There is no come down. Felt happier in the following 3-4 weeks than I have ever felt.  I have never felt such love for life. Best decision i've ever made.

Without major prison reform making those 2 HARD drugs would be disastrous.

Keep it simple with Marijuana, those other hard drugs are not good for anybody period.  Why make it easier for young people to get hooked on them or access?

Healthcare rates would skyrocket and insurance rates would also go up.

Then again you are more left then me, so we can agree to disagree on these types of issues.

Actually......it would be harder for young people to access them if legalized. It is currently easier for an 18 year old to get coke or LSD than it is to get alcohol. The supply of illegal drugs is not restricted to an age bracket right now. Also........mushrooms and prison should never be used in the same sentence and everyone should try mushrooms at least once in their life. People on mushrooms are not a threat. They are creative, open-minded, and in most cases more respectful than while "sober".

Edit - also mushrooms are not addictive. There is usually a period of several months after use where their is LESS desire to use them than beforehand. I use them 2-3 times a year.

Mushrooms aren't hard drugs, they're psychedelics. Hard drugs are ones that are very damaging and addictive such as crack, cocaine, heroin and meth. Mushrooms are harmless. The only psychedelic that carries risks is LSD, and that is simply due to the risk of a flashback trip, which could strike at anytime.

On another issue, who else is sick of those stupid anti drug commercials that make it look like weed destroys families and relationships? Ironically, my dad and I bonded over a blunt a few weeks ago. It was the first time I ever smoked with him (or for that matter, anyone in my family), and we had a great time, discussed politics and life, and then ate a lot of food later, lol.

You would be exacerbating the problem by making hard drugs legal.  I agree the money spent on the "war on drugs" is a waste.  Thats in the current form its being implemented, I would REFORM our prison system and then make Marijuana legal.  Heroin is not good for the public why make it legal?
Do you think performance enhancing drugs should be legal too?   Now the same could be said for Tobacco and Alcohol, but at a much slower rate.

You say we would save money by getting rid of the war on drugs, however if you are also for Gov healthcare then you would now have a problem on that side.

Heroin is bad for the public while legal. It is WORSE for the public while illegal. Why make it legal? Sometimes the easy solution isn't a solution at all.

 Performance enhancing drugs should be tested for with sports and any private institutions and businesses that would like to test for them. They should not be payed for with tax money. They should be taxed....... something that will help pay for healthcare. I am for public healthcare, and I think that if we are going to make healthcare a public matter, we need to legalize drugs so that we do not have to constantly take care of poor bastards who overdose not knowing the purity of the "heroin" they inject or taking an E pill that contains methamphetamine and rat poison. Drugs are bad. And if we want our kids to take us seriously on them we need to present ALL the facts.....not just the convenient ones.

I can only imagine the presidential races in 30 years. Thanks to facebook / myspace / forums nobody will be able to run. I'm not particularly worried about me though. When you are doing scientific research they are not going to be checking political forums to see whether or not they give you a grant. They care more about what potential benefit your research could provide. It was actually my love for neuroscience and my " authority" attitude that got me to try most of the drugs on that list. I have not become addicted to any of them (except tobacco......which I have stopped).  Those that I felt would be most harmful if legal, through my research, through my use, and through seeing others use -  are cocaine, LSD, and methamphetamine. Of all of the drugs listed I would say that mushrooms are among the least harmful.
