It's mostly up to the individual , if a person is well balanced then doing some drugs will not result in any problem. If the person has some issues then drugs might intensify it.
It's the same with religion . Religion can help people lead a better life. But some people are so f**ked-up that they end up using religion as pretext for violence and insanity.
Freedom is dangerous , information can be dangerous (and drugs are some type of information) . You can play it safe like China, take away the responsibility from the people and decide the rules of the games for them. Or you can experience with freedom, let people discover for themselves. |
I'm for a ban on alcohol and marijuana. Tobacco does not induce a "rush" and is therefor not dangerous. The question about tobacco is a whole other issue.
You said it yourself, drugs will intensify all experiences, good or bad. That's pretty much what I base my argument on. The people using drugs are not only endangering themselves, but also those around them. In what way are you referring to drugs a a kind of information?
China is not ideal in any way. They're imprisoning people for political views, that's very different from imprisoning people for
possibly endangering other people's lives.
Would you say the police is infringing on my freedom if they look me up for killing a person? Even if I didn't kill anyone, would you consider it my right to wave a knife in front of someone saying I'm going to kill him even if I don't do it?
