Oh right.

You just took them in the past.

Now you spend your time posting on public forums that they are fun, and should all be legalised.

Dumb.

Another side effect.

But I believe out of principle for one, you shouldn't have to go to prison for using drugs and also you should be able to do what you want with your own body.

No you don't do drugs, we believe you.

So far as being able to do what I want with my body,

I've always wanted to save money by not using toilet paper, but even I, after a few days of bad aroma have had to bow to convention.

Back tp the drugs,

If you don't use them, why fuss about them?
You just lately seem 'spaced out', as you claim, without such artificial aids.

But perhaps I would if they were legal and good quality (not cut with poison by criminals)!

"The number of deaths linked to drinking has gone from 8,664 to 8,790 - a rise of 126." between 2009 to 2010!

EIGHT THOUSAND + PEOPLE DIE FROM DRINKING ALCOHOL EACH YEAR!

WHY IS DRINKING LEGAL??????

BBC News - Alcohol deaths increase slightly

Have a read at this: The Dark Side of Sleeping Pills, an eBook by Daniel F. Kripke, MD.

One cause of death was especially increased. Among men, those who took sleeping pills 30 times a month had 7 times the risk of suicide! Women who took sleeping pills 30 times a month had 2 times the risk of suicide. Nevertheless, the suicides were only a small portion of deaths associated with using sleeping pills. Deaths from other common causes such as heart disease, cancer, and stroke were also increased among sleeping pill users.

Exactly. So why make more harmful substances legal?

Would you be happy if a young, close relative, was experimenting with all the illegal recreational drugs that are now readily available?

I wouldn't mind them taking good quality known drugs like ecstacy, cannabis if the dealer knew they were pure. But not if they went into a night club buying and using all sorts of unknown drugs.

If ? There is no way the dealer will be shifting pure stuff as it'll cut into his margins & added to that I'd go ballistic if I knew one of my kith & kin were using such crap.

Mate, your moral compass is way out of kilter.
