get together to drink,tell stories,play loud music and to smoke,and
some of them smoke weed.The next day there are fags(cigarettes) and cigarette papers everywhere.It's a big mess.Sometimes on the staircase leading to my frontdoor as well.

Remember,i am speaking about things that actually happened in my life.
I've also lost a good friend of mine,who started with softdrugs, things went from bad to worse and i don't ever want that to happen again.So if someone wants to smoke hasj
be my guest,but you'll not be a friend of mine.

You might think i'm very harsh here,but now you know why.
Just too many bad experiences.

I'm really sorry to hear that
This of course is one the disadvantages with marijuana/hasch, that people get careless..and may get into heavier stuff, which may kill them..
But maybe that would change if it was legal?

I hear where you're coming from, the exact same thing happened with my brother's best friend who was also my friend. It hurts seeing them go down that path.

I doubt that.I think people can get careless,whether hasj is legalized or not.And not only with hasj,with alcohol as well.
It's all about selfcontrol,imo.And you don't change that if you
legalize things.

Yes but people might react faster and more efficently if it was 'public', legal..if you see what I mean?
And of course alcohol is very much the same as hasch only, as posted before, the government make huge money on it, so it's allowed

If you mean what i think you mean it's a shame people
have to react more efficiently.Shouldn't be necessary.

Good discussion Regin [img]smile.gif[/img] ,but let's hear non-european
views too.

I don't know about this one. It's like legalising hard drugs. I mean, the government will possibly be able to control the distribution more. But, it's like legalising wrecking your body. The government might also make profit, which might help.

There are advantages to legalising drugs overall, but I see the disadvantages of it to outweigh the advantages of it.

Anyway, about Marijuana. I don't really know anything about it, so I can't judge.

So you're saying things should be illegal if they wreck your body??
Ok, that's alcohol gone too, and cigarettes, pretty soon they'd make salt illegal cos too much is bad for you.

Weed is hardly as harmless as it seems. It's at least as dangerous as smoking unfiltered cigarettes of tobacco that is grown to have as much tar producing resin as possible. What do you think hash is made of? Couple that with breating it in as deeply as possible and holding it in as long as possible and you've got your answer. Pot also inhibits your mental activity. A very bad thing for the young developing mind. On a positive note, it would be better to classify it like alchohol. Sell it to adults. Less black market, less criminal activity, and less people in jail for pot possession. The drug laws right now are overkill for most. Other drugs, such as heroin, must be kept illegal. They produce a completely euphoric effect that almost always screws up someones life. They can be easily overdosed on and produce dependencies that can kill from withdrawal effects.
