The topic says it all.

Why do governments feel the need to make drugs illegal? If anything, it causes a lot more problems than there were before. If they were legalized, there would not be nearly as many violent actions over getting them since the prices would not be nearly as high. There would not been as many people over doing it with drugs, since it would eventually just become a normal thing in day-to-day life.

the answer is pretty obvious, if drugs were legalize probably half of the people online in this forum would be spending their time drinking than actually doing something productive :P

One pill of ecstasy can damage the brain, in just one use. Because ecstasy isn't grown from plants, it is made in secret labs. And the person who makes them, and sells them to you, can add extra ingrediants to give it more jizz. I recently watched this informing video about this young lady who took an ecstasy pill. And was almost instatutionalized because of the brain damage. If they start mass-producing these things, it's gonna be bad.

Uh that is only in rare cases. I know many ravers who use it and they end up fine, the key is to drink lots of water. She recieved brain damage probably because she didnt stay hydrated, which overheated her brain.

So, if they do legalize ecstasy and start mass-producing them, are they gonna sell the water right next to the ecstasy pills?

The raves I goto already do, dunno about the raves you goto, o wait you have to be 18 to goto raves... you'll find out in a little bit what you've been missing.


Thought the water bottles are about a buck each verses 20 bucks for a half moon (big X).

I'm not ever going to go to a party where they have ecstasy, because I live in the mormon state, and have great friends who I don't think are going to wind up in some other guys house getting wasted.

I don't use drugs, but I am invited along with my friends when they go clubbing. I meet lots of potential "connections" that I may be able to use when I finish med school.

Yep, ive heard people call it "dancing yourself to death"

Anyway, after you take enough E your body wouldnt be able to make this chemical that basically makes you happy, I think it dopamine you stop making, basically without E you depressed ALL THE TIME.
But anyway I dont think a person actually dies just from the E unless its mixed with some thing else it can still fuck you up tho

Cannabis(weed) should be the only legalized "drug". It has almost no negative health affects. Those that it does have can be avoided by ingesting it, as opposed to smoking it. It has muscle relaxing , as well as stress relieving, properties. Nobody has ever died of a "marijuana overdose" as this is not possible.

I live in Holland and here are softdrugs( like weed and hasj) legal. No one has a problem with them. Only harddrugs is the thing that need to stay illegal, that is real trash! but people won't die of weed! So MAKE THAT LEGAL

Really? wow haha... Of course every religion has to have sum stupid strict thing about it.. Rlly thow, i find that chilling with my buddies drinkn back some beer is always a chill way to spend a night... Im sry to say but having some huge grudge against beer is very childish. And im sry to say but if there not mormon, they will end up getting wasted by the end of high school... I mean who doesn't? Everybody drinks on grad...
As for that E story, its a bunch of bull. Cops continue to make statements that E can kill you, or that there is a 1/8 chance of dying from one E pill, or that most E pills are contaminated by the dealer by him adding rat poison and such... That is all BS that the police use to make u not do it. Why would dealers add stuff to there product, it just gives them a bad rap and they end up losing out on alot of business. Plus they are killing customers... STupid excuse by the cops. As for the girl, she probably simply died of taking way more then she could handle. Not to mention if she was dehydrated before hand and took one on an empty stomach.... well its obvious some sh't is gonna happen to her.

I know I'm a noob, but just here me out.

The government makes things illegal for a reason. They don't just whip around and say "Let's ban cannabis" on a whim. The government would make tobacco and alcohol illegal too, but the public wouldn't allow it. They did do it once, but it failed. The citizens wouldn't stand for it.

Trust me, if a majority of people were for the legalization of drugs, than we could all be snorting coke right now. But the drug-legalization crowd is no majority, and it won't be for a long time, if ever.
