If Drugs Were Made Legal

I'm not American you moron. If you read the whole article you'd notice that it also applies to Singapore. Don't make stupid assumptions until you've read the entire article.Originally posted by Meat Pao:Please look again how many instances the word 'America(n)' appear in your post, or the word 'LA', or 'Deputy Barney' (who is this), 'Bill of rights' , and 'Alcohol Prohibition'.
All those are very American-oriented words, and I scan 2 minutes no need to read all or digest it, already know it doesnt apply thousands of miles away to an Asian society here in Singapore.
Thats why some people in this world have problem with Americans, they like to export and apply their own world-view and expect everybody else to think like them and have the same beliefs with them.
One example is you.
Thank you.

... you're just defending cause you do drugs -
Must a man be homosexual to support the repeal of Section 377A, must someone be a drug user to support legalisation? Can a rich man fight for more welfare for the poor? Can the family of a murdered victim fight to abolish the death penalty?Originally posted by JJxJJ: ... you're just defending cause you do drugs
Why not?
Too many Singaporeans are unable to see beyond this. -
reliance on drugs, be it illegal substances or medication, would have an adverse effect on the society as a whole. be it economically and socially. yes it does.Originally posted by jondizzle foshizzle:Exactly we don't need drug dealers which is why we need to legalise drugs. The reason why there are secret drug deals, heists for drugs, stealing money for druggies habits are because drugs are illegal, you're supporting my point.
Drugs in an average consumption WILL NOT lead to withdrawal symptoms. Many alcoholics have impaired thinking. Reliance on alcohol is just as bad as reliance on drugs.
If drugs were legal there wouldn't be organised crime because the criminals would go bankrupt as they're unable to compete with the pharmacies selling drugs. If drugs were legal they would be very cheap because of mass production so people wouldn't blow all their money on it or resort to stealing to fund their habit. -
Yes but how would legalising drugs make people reliant on it? Making drugs illegal doesn't stop people from doing them you fail to realise that.Originally posted by sEphIrOth:reliance on drugs, be it illegal substances or medication, would have an adverse effect on the society as a whole. be it economically and socially. yes it does. -
Nope, in no way am I defending drugs, I'm merely promoting the legalisation of them as it would have a positive effect on our country.Originally posted by JJxJJ: ... you're just defending cause you do drugs -
u legalise drugs, more people will take drugs since its very accessible by then. the drug lords will earn much more, not the other way round
-
Nope, drug lords wouldn't be able to compete with the low prices of pharmacies because of the mass production by big companies. And not more people will take drugs because anyone who wants to do drugs currently can easily access it. It being illegal doesn't inhibit anyone from doing it.Originally posted by cloud210:u legalise drugs, more people will take drugs since its very accessible by then. the drug lords will earn much more, not the other way round -
if u fail to realise that laws are made to prevent people from abusing them, yet people do. if a law is made that people are not to cause harm to others, why do people cause harm? therefore, law enforcers are here.Originally posted by jondizzle foshizzle:Yes but how would legalising drugs make people reliant on it?

reliance is physical. the body would rely on more dopamine to allow pleasure/enjoyment to flow through the body. ever heard of marginal rate of satisfaction? the gradual increase in need for dopamine in the brain due to pleasure seeking makes the reliance, not mentioning the additives in the drugs.(e.g cig=nicotine=reliance ingredient) -
What the hell do you want to take something that deteoriates your body?
-
Have u ever imagine what will happen if a drug addict has no more money to buy drugs anymore?
Stop being so naive and stupid, please. -
Exactly the reason why we need to legalise it. So drug addicts can seek help without fear of prosecution. I think you're the one being naive. It seems like you think that everyone who does drugs instantly becomes an addict.Originally posted by Ignorance:Have u ever imagine what will happen if a drug addict has no more money to buy drugs anymore?

Yes laws are made to prevent people from abusing them but the question is how effective is it? The answer is not effective at all. That's what you fail to realise and legalising drugs won't change that but it has other benefits.Originally posted by sEphIrOth:if u fail to realise that laws are made to prevent people from abusing them, yet people do. if a law is made that people are not to cause harm to others, why do people cause harm? therefore, law enforcers are here.

Another thing is that not every single person who does drugs becomes reliant on them. It's the same with alcohol and cigarettes and if those two are legal I don't see why drugs shouldn't be. -
show me how ineffective laws are and i will gladly complyOriginally posted by jondizzle foshizzle:Yes laws are made to prevent people from abusing them but the question is how effective is it?

Dont get my started here.
Please dont confuse marijuana with cigarettes , alchohol , needles and syringes... entire collapse in society , the dark ages and the ' Oh.. u just saying that cause u do drugs'
Lets all sit down in a circle and discuss about it. -
What add the extra burden to people where some even have difficulty paying their bills?Originally posted by jondizzle foshizzle:Exactly the reason why we need to legalise it.

And yes, go take drugs. And prove me me u can quit whenever u want to quit.
Stupid

Everything in moderation.
Different drugs have different addiction level. Anything can become an addiction. -
Well these drugs lords has the capital to set up the big companies for mass production you've mention. They could even buy the whole manufacturing plant of an existing factory.Originally posted by jondizzle foshizzle:Nope, drug lords wouldn't be able to compete with the low prices of pharmacies because of the mass production by big companies.

I also want drugs to legalise cause the first post pretty much showed there is more pros than cons. Just that I don't agree with the drug lords will get poorer.

so long, can't be bothered to read

Either way, even if the drug lords do get richer they would no longer need to resort to illegal activities and violence to run their business. -
LOL I think you're the stupid one. Drugs like ecstacy, marijuana, lsd have an almost zero addiction potential. Crack, dope, etc. can get more addictive but then again probably not much more than cigarettes. I know people who've done drugs for a long time and never gotten addicted and some who've even stopped cold turkey with no trouble at all. Most people who do drugs don't get addicted at all, only a minority do. So don't say stupid things like asking me to prove to you that you can quit drugs anytime.Originally posted by Ignorance:What add the extra burden to people where some even have difficulty paying their bills?

And you said that have done drug for a LONG TIME but they are not addicted.
LOL
why would they do drugs for so long if they are not addicted in the frist place??
LOL
So stupid.
You are thick up there ya dude -

Why would people play computer for so long if they're not addicted in the first place?
Why would people play sport for so long if they're not addicted in the first place?
Why would people go on holidays for so long if they're not addicted in the first place?
Why would people watch movies for so long if they're not addicted in the first place?
Why would people eat chocolates for so long if they're not addicted in the first place?
Why would people have ice-cream for so long if they're not addicted in the first place?
Are you saying that all those people are addicted to ice-cream, chocolates, movies, sport, vacations, computers? Retard
All those drugs I listed have nothing physically in it that makes you want to do it again. People who do it over and over are doing it out of choice. Those drugs do not contain anything addictive in them.
