Are you saying that people do not use heroin and cocaine to achieve some kind of 'high'....and as some part of their 'social scene'?
The other thread wasn't called Legalise Cannabis....it didn't specify which illegal drugs should be legalised.
You tell us that cannabis has caused no deaths........but you do not take into account the users who go on to other illegal drugs when cannabis fails to give the user the buzz that they are looking for. Neither do you take into account, those whose mental health has been affected by the use of this substance.
As Less has said, there are regulations which are in place for the sale of alcohol and tobacco.
And as for statistics, you can make them prove any damn thing you want.

This thread is about legalising drugs , pointless having 2 threads the same.
I am talking about cannabis alone = 0 deaths
I will ask you .. please put up statistics regarding alcohol & lets see the difference as to which is more dangerous & how alcohol effects the body & mind over the long term .
The amount of harm & money that alcohol costs this country is huge but that is OK because its legal & it can be taxed
