And id really like to see some of ur stats relating drug-use and drub abuse to divorce rates, massive lay-offs, and such... |
Yuo misunderstood me, I said that divorce rates are rising, along with lay-off rates, which causes stress, anger, adn depression... which are the leading causes of drug abuse.
So I'm saying divorces lead to drug abuse, not the otehr way around.

racist bastards and biblebent nutjobs made it our problem. |
I don't understand how racisms plays a role in this, and I agree that biblical nutjobs can ruin many things for everyone.

but the basics of mankind, power, lust, greed, evil, good, oppressing others, etc. will always be here as long as people are. |
The thing is with that, is that all those are different with every person you meet. Not everyone is going to be power hungry, so really, everything you listed above, changes quite often, but you are right, they are characteristics of humans, just like intelligence. some poeple have it, some people don't.

drug orginizations will not stop until all drugs r legalized... |
I agree that legalizing drugs will rid us of many crimes, but I'm not sure if it's worth every nutjob being able to buy cocaine, the most addidctive substance I know of. Take alcohol for an example, we legalized it (after banning it), but it is still the leading cause of death in America.

people do not kill other people on drugs or themselves as much as ud like us to believe |
I'd much rather have only the people who are buying the drugs now, be in risk of getting a bad trip and killing themselves or others, rather than any everyday guy buying a bag of coke to try out, and tripping out. They say weeb is the gateway drug, which it is. It's easy to get, and cheaper than most other drugs. for the most part, it teaches the user how to control themselves with drugs, before they encounter something stronger. I know I was an herb smoker long before I did other drugs, and was able to control them better because of that. But imagine if your first drug experience was some acid, you wouldn't know how to react. I'd rather someone buy the stronger drugs illegally, cause that would mean that they are experienced with drugs if they know where to go to get it, or are doing the drug with people that are experienced, and know how to take care of something that might happen.
You're right, jsut because you're on a bad trip, doesn't mean you wanna kill yourself, or someone else, but everyone is different, maybe they had a horrible day, and can't get that off their mind. I know this can happen when it's illegal, but the drug won't be as available, so lesser people have a chance to have this bad trip. 100 people have less of a chance of something going wrong than a 1000.

xtc are pretty hard to od on |
xtc is one of the most dangeous drugs out there, it slowly eats away your brain, leaving it looking like swiss cheese. Don't take me like I'm all anti drugs, I'm often doing xtc, acid, and smoking herb. I've tried ice, and a few other drugs, but didn't like the high. I would rather see drugs kept to the smaller percent of the population it is now, rather than letting everyone be able to get their hands on it, by driving up to their gas station 24 hours a day.

...and with heroin, odd but tree, most ods are caused because of the impurities in the drug |
Agree, it usually involves an air bubble in the needle that gets caught in your blood stream, or an impurity in the drug, but herion is highly addictive, and shouldn't be released to the public, for that reason.
QUOTE |
because of these actions of a few |
again, I agree. The actions of a few shouldn't reflect the rest, but it does, and you can't change that. I'm all for the selling of drugs you can grow in your backyard, but once it has to touch a lab to get created, I don't agree with it being legal.
