I am completely against the drug war. We should make certain drugs legal with government regulation. The reason many drugs are so dangerous is because of carelessness when it comes to the care of the drugs. Pesticides and many other poisonous chemicals are left on the black market drugs that make it more dangerous to use. With government regulation, better care would be taken in processing the drugs. Many non-risk offenders are in jail because of usage or procession of illegal drugs. This takes away from our tax dollars. Just because something is legal, that doesn't mean everyone and their grandmother will do it. It just makes it safer for the consumption of such drugs. Another thing is the black market. By making drugs legal with government regulations, you actually make a huge dent in the black market and you put money back into our economy through purchases of the drugs, taxes on the drugs, and more jobs for people to handle the drugs.

I'm opposed to legalizing any drug that causes severe addiction unless it's strictly for medicinal purposes and tightly regulated to avoid abuse. Cocaine doesn't fit the bill so it should remain illegal. Meth too.

Wait, they are? Where? And would you mind passing a link along?
I think drug use will certainly go up if it's made legal.
For instance, peer pressure can make people take it up in the first place. Now you have no excuse to refuse a joint.
Well, you could say it screws with your brain, but nobodys going to take that if they just had two already..

Well, you could say it screws with your brain, but nobodys going to take that if they just had two already.. Look it up yourself on the DEA. Cocaine is a Schedule II drug. It is a highly powerful local anaesthetic that is invaluable in facial surgeries, particularly around the nose. Methamphetamine is a Schedule III drug. It is used militarily as well as to treat certain attention deficit disorders. What's sad is that for political reasons, heroin (belongs in Schedule II), MDMA (belongs in Schedule III), and psychedelics (belong in Schedule IV/V or unScheduled) are still completely and totally illegal, and cannot be used medically despite clearly-demonstrated medical uses. Please explain how drug use will rise upon legalization, despite evidence from Amsterdam that the opposite occurs.

i couldnt agree more. its just like prohibition, did that not cause more problems? besides ethyl alcohol could be considered a drug even. yet it its legal. i think drugs should be legal. but with strict regulations and standards. and as someone else said. look at other countries, there fine. i really dont see someone doing drugs as a rephrehensible crime, it makes no sense to me. if you want to do drugs, fine by me, it isnt effecting me in any way shape or form.

There's a different between prohibition and what we're talking about. Probhibition criminalized something that was ingrained in the culture of many immigrants and so of course it's going to fail. You can't just tell a huge group of people that their way of life and use of alcohol is taboo. They just won't go for it.

Went to DEA homepage, and sort of hit a block...apparently I need a credit card.. neutral And what evidence?

Look it up yourself.

What on earth is confusing about the scheduling link? Read the definitions, it's painfully straightforward. Look, if you don't even understand the drug scheduling system, I don't think it's too wrong of me to go out on a limb here and suggest that you're not educated enough on this topic to be debating it.
