题目: Re:Legalization of "softer" drugs has worked in other countries, but politically unacceptable in many places.
(V): With regards to Marijuana.. as far as I am aware.. there has never been a fatality related directly to it's use.
Everyone has heard this one before..... but I have read studies that show too much caution when driving impaired by pot, and that can, and has lead to other people being involved in an accident.
Also, just because one drug is "better" than some other legal one, is not a good argument for it to be legal as well, IMHO.
What is the definition os a drug anyway??? You want to say caffeine too? Is caffeine a drug?? What substance is not a drug then???
I dont mind it as a prescribed drug, I am sure it much safer than many other prescribed drugs, and others that are legal too. but I dont want you and me growing it and selling legally to someone with a prescription either.
And as dandy pointed out, prescription drugs have a warnig that they are not to be used while driving etc..... same as legal drugs IE alcohol, no drugs should be used while doing anything that can harm someone else!
