I dont look down on people for smoking dope...its when that is their main reason for existing that they become dull and uninteresting...

It would be okay if they made me laugh, like Jay and Silent Bob do, but I suppose they're only faking it...

Yeah but they are proper geeks in real life..

in response to the things abt moving on to harder drugs, that was my point, legalise all of it and put age restrictions on hard drugs and so on to make it safer, it goes on anyway so the gov't may as well put some control over it and make it that little bit more safer for the people using as well as innocent people who don't but get caught up in (like little kids finding dirty needles etc.)

Just make this guy in charge of the drugs problem.

Anyway, making all drugs legal is stupid. It would send out completely the wrong message that drugs are safe. Crime to fund drugs would still be the same problem as it is now and more people would suffer from drug abuse if it were more readily available. There are too many drug heads. People will still get addicted and there will be the same problem as there is now - but hey at least we get the tax right. Sorry but I don't do the horse and neither should anyone else.

The solution? Get all the kids to believe that they are taking drugs when really they are taking Cake - which is a made up drug. That way they think they are rebelling or conforming without any of the addictions. Noel Edmonds, David Ames, F.U.K.D and Bomb'd they all had the right idea.

the majority of stoners/pillheads/whatever do it because they're bored with everyone/everything going on. It's a stimulant which "intensifies" what's going on around them, making it seem more interesting. the same as getting pissed when you go out.

fuck it, i haven't got a problem with them as such, apart from the crime that invaribly goes along with "harder" drugs...and besides how the fuck else can you explain why Trance is so popular?

What about the Rehabilitation scheme that's being introduced for Smackheads? That one where they are provided with a safe needle + clean environment for free in clinics when they feel the need to go and then gradually get weened off the drug. i think its a blinding idea personally - at least when they take the drug they're safe and also can get medical help to get them off it + taking business away from the streets and inevitably the crime that goes along with it.

Noodle: Just coz somethings legal doesn't make it less addictive, just more available.

Better availability=more addicts

more addicts=more UNEMPLOYED addicts

Unemployed addicts=crime

And come on and face it, age limits?

How many underage kids do you know that smoke or drink? A hell of a lot I'll wager. Drugs would be no different
