Accip74 7,112 Posted October 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Some good points of view on both sides......must admit, when I was younger & did most of my drug taking, I was much more 'anti' legalise, I thought it would be madness.... ....but as I've got older it's seems to make more sense, if only to free up an already stretched police force......decriminalising weed is a no-brainer now, have you seen the amount of grow shops out there now? There must be a grow in some form, on nearly every street now......& we are trying to police that?? The Americans are starting to get wise to this now, they know it's futile & so do our own police.... Class A's will always be more contentious, whilst it may seem like we would rid our selves of lots of organised crime, due to decriminalisation......would they not move on to something else? Like alcohol, drugs don't always have to be about misery & desperation & lack of control.......me & all my friends took a variety of drugs while we were growing up & socialised together......we all got jobs, lived normal lives & had many other interests, started family's, formed many different friendships & travelled the world.....none of us became addicted, missed work or stole from our family's.......in fact, 2 of my best friends are really successful, traveling the world with work, on 6 figure salary's.....but when we infrequently meet up together, we still enjoy some social drug use,all these years later, then forget about it again for another year.... Like everything.....we all have that choice to do things in moderation.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 6,174 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 The most I ever did when I was young was smoke cannabis, grass, etc. To be honest, it just made me sleepy. I tried coke once, and swore I'd never touch it again, and never have: the feeling was just too good. It scares me too much to ever become dependent on something that alters how you feel to that extent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dytkos 17,841 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 IF ANYONE HEARD ON THE RADIO THE OTHER DAY ABOUT TAKING LOTS OF KETAMINE AND HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR BODY, YOU'D HAVE TO BE INSANE TO KEEP TAKING IT CHEERS, D. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sandymere 8,263 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Legal or illegal it’s not really the question, I think education is a big part of the problem, most people will know more about how their car works than their body! How can people make sensible informed life choices if they don’t have the relevant knowledge on which to make those choices? At the moment we have legal highs, these are pretty shocking but legal, lots of deaths already due to these, admissions to hospital for cardiac problems, psychological and things like DVTs due to injecting them into their femoral veins! Not Heroin addicts, it’s normal for them, but young people on a night out! If we learnt about our body, not some silly biology lesion, but properly to the extent of a medical student which is perfectly possible for your average person then perhaps we would be a little more careful about how we treat our bodies.It's the most important thing we have so a proper education seems sensible. That should include in illness as well as health, see people with COPD and lung cancer, learn about their lives and deaths, see drug addicts and what their lives entail, liver disease, diabetes etc etc. When people really know the whole truth then they can make an informed choice, until then they can’t. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You made good choices, like we all can.....I've never tried anything truly hard like heroin or crack, because I never wanted to.....I thought it would be a risk to far.....

You can't educate against curiosity & enjoyment.......I knew smoking gave you cancer from a very young age, I started smoking cigarettes at aged 21!......took me ten years to quit.... In the 90s we knew Ecstasy wasn't a health drug, we took loads of it & enjoyed the experience on a major scale..... I'm not saying we shouldn't educate, you are quite right......but awareness will never stop youth experimenting in life..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sandymere 8,263 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) take a few kids to see the end stage cancers, COPD, drug use etc meet people dying, see the squalor of it, let them watch the day in the life of a heroine addict, not a cleaned up version but the real thing. Its all to........ what’s the term, glamorous to the young but only because they don't see the reality. Some will do it anyway but many won't.

dare 1,103 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Drugs might aswell be legal now anyway. Maybe its a generation thing but I'd not find a single person in my phone who hasn't tried something. Apart from 1 or 2 all the rest would be more than weed aswell. Got a mixture of people on my phone aswell. Same as I bet everyone under the age of say 25 had someone on their phone who's a dealer. Are drugs the problem or the people? For me you can have an amazing time on drugs it just becomes a problem when you get addicted. Those same people could get addicted to drink I've heard many people say "I've got an addictive personality". Educate people and let them make their own choices?
