Really dont understand the need to give people more drugs/alcohol/etc. War on drugs has been destructive but so are many of these substances. An approach to legalize/free use is a dangerously lazy answer.

Many of these drugs have extremely valuable therapeutic benefits, and the war on drugs has all but destroyed any ability to research and use them in that context.

How many people do you know whose lives have been destroyed by DMT/mushrooms/mescaline?

Really don’t understand the need to control what other people do. Just worry about yourself. You don’t like drugs? Don’t do them.

So you’re against the war on drugs, but you’re also against legalization of drugs. What’s your solution then? Confiscation and destruction of drugs?

I agree they can be very dangerous when used stupidly. But so are a lot of legal things (guns, alcohol)
