Sarcasmo said:Drunk people are easy to deal with.
b_sinning said:illict drugs legal. Have harsh driving under the influence laws but if you're in your home and do something and don't leave then why should that be illegal? It's your body.

I'm sure Bubbles and Candy could assist.
Nyx said:Precisely. Your body, your business unless and until you harm someone else.
Sarcasmo said:People who are whacked out of their mind have a significantly higher chance of wigging out and hurting someone than drunk people.
Marijuana should be legal, but hard drugs should not be. Unless you're a musician. Druggies make awesome music, and that's a fact.
fly said:you don't play well.
Nyx said:1. Partly true, depends on what a person is whacked out on and how whacked out they are. The same drug can have different effects from one person to another, as can alcohol.
2. Excellent reason to have heavy penalties in place for hurting someone while under the influence and for anyone using any sort of drugs to be very, very careful.
But the idea of the thread is if you absolutely have to pick one, what would it be?Thorn Bird said:well, i'm serious. i thought about it, and i just don't think drugs should be legal. i know there are responsible people out there that might be able to handle themselves under the influence, but a majority can't. i think that the number of people who use would increase, and the quality of drugs would decrease, and i don't think that's a good combo.
