Re: Legalise "Illegal" Drugs?
A few pages ago there was some discussion, if you can call it that, regarding Sugar and the harm it does....
Interestingly the BBC have this,
BBC One - Bang Goes the Theory, Series 7, Episode 1
Just to add to the debate, this story of a Drug Addict appeared in this weeks Accrington Observer,

Jo Wood, wife of rockstar Ronnie Wood claims she gave drugs to her children and none of them turned out to be addicts in their twenties! Doesn't this tell a lot about the facts about this issue!

Re: Legalise "Illegal" Drugs?
I have decided, we need to legalise all illegal drugs, just so we can close down this stupid thread.
Make them legal then idiots like the thread Starter will get stoned and leave the rest of us alone.

Re: Legalise "Illegal" Drugs?
Says more about Jo Wood as a mother, rather than a critique on Drugs. IMHO
I have no issues with anyone who wishes to partake in illicit substances, the problem only arises when other people are invoked and hurt. A addict will resort to Theft, Burglary, Robbery to feed his/her habit.
Then there's the drugs cartels, Medellin comes to mind.
BTW just found this.... Remind you of anyone?

I bet there are plenty of Dutch folk that couldn't find their bikes after the end of WWII.
Probably all got melted down to make classic VW camper vans.

The issue does not go away...More are getting hurt by "legal highs"
What is happening is that "legal highs" are being manufactured - these are chemicals that are not illegal - and are sold on the internet - people still buy them and more people get ill and die. Now if the drugs that we all know like Cannabis, cocaine, ecstacy etc were not illegal then these new "legal highs" would not have a market and there would be less deaths.

Drugs tsar warning on 'legal highs'

Britain is being swamped by a "potentially dangerous" influx of so-called legal highs, the Government's drugs tsar has warned.
Professor Les Iversen, chairman of the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD), said he and his colleagues can not keep tabs on all the substances available as there are now around 200 such chemicals flooding the market.
Mr Iversen told a public hearing that dealers are dodging laws by dressing the drugs up as plant food and warned that overdose risks were "clearly immense".
And he said the ACMD, which reviews substances and advises whether measures should be taken for preventing misuse, would be focusing on a man-made amphetamine called Benzo Fury and new LSD-like chemicals.
Mr Iversen said: "This has become a high priority agenda item for the ACMD and will continue to be so for the foreseeable future as the new compounds continue to emerge. The European Monitoring Centre logged in 60 new compounds last year and there's been a similar rate this year. That's one a week.
