Your opinion on recreational drug use

[DirtyMartini]

recreational drugs must be prohibited. there are lots of ways to party and have fun without harming somebody and yourself.

You should pack up your bags and go to North Korea.  Everything is prohibited and everyone is safe....and severely brainwashed.  I think you'd like it there. 

Hilarious! haha

On the question at hand: Personally I think, if you're an adult and you choose to get high here and there, in the right circumstances, there's nothing wrong with that. To me its no different than having a few glasses of wine occasionally.

What IS the problem, is those who do it to a point where it starts affecting other aspects of your lie. That's when things get messed up. But its not just drugs, some people have the same problem with alcohol, some also with prescription drugs.. Same thing, they use it as a crutch and avoid living in reality and then it f*cks their whole lives up.

I tried a few drugs in my 20's, and honestly I enjoyed the experiences for what they were, some of the funnest times in my life. It was never a problem for me, I never had the urge to do it regularly, and it never affected my work or study (and I owned a business and was at law school at the time). By the time I got to my 30's, I was out of my young partying days, so stopped, life's priorities change and you move on.

For me, recreational drugs should not be allowed because aside from using it, there are lots of ways in order to celebrate, party, or rave peacefully. There are cases that party goers who used recreational drugs during parties died on the event. Even though it is recreational drugs, it is still drugs and there are still side effects that may harm your body.

[Douglasyukanov]

Drugs for all types of effects are the same, I think there is no difference in its side effects

[Mahfeeling3]

I'm not sure, when you allow the recreational use many people will take advantage of this situation

[mostkey]

All drugs are dangerous because they have more harm than good effects. We should be able to conclude by ourselves

In fact everyone has known and concluded the use of drugs they use, but the human tendency is to find and discover new things, therefore the overuse of drugs that they often do, and even then very bad for the performance of the brain, which they consider it is a drug Fun medicines

[Pajulapoiss]

A lot of examples of propaganda manipulation in this thread, rather funny reading all these opinions from brainwashed people who have cleary no idea, what they are talking about.

"I've never done drugs, drugs are bad for your body, drugs should be banned, drugs are very addictive, I've seen it in television"

Wake up sheelpe, you only live once, go experience, go live instead of watching TV every night.

Some people may take advantage of the situation, but it is not going to be the drug peddlers. The drug smugglers will lose their jobs if the drugs are legalized. Even the drug cartels will go bankrupt.

Nevada approves emergency regulation aimed at solving marijuana shortage

The Nevada Tax Commission voted unanimously in favor of the regulation two weeks after the state began allowing the sale of recreational marijuana and supply problems quickly arose because nobody had been licensed to transport it.

The referendum passed last year by Nevada voters legalizing the drug for recreational use stipulated that for the first 18 months of sales only liquor wholesalers would be allowed to apply to distribute marijuana — a nod to the powerful alcohol industry, which is worried about new competition from pot.

But few alcohol distributors applied, and through Tuesday, none had been approved. When sales began July 1, retail shops — all of which were already selling marijuana for medical use — had to rely on their existing stocks, which soon started to run low.

Everyone knows the effect and long term effect of Marijuana, these agencies are just concerned about making money, they really don't care about the consumers at all. Legalization of Marijuana has made some serious money for some states, others are planning to legalize it as well.

I think that the drugs that athletes take should be monitored for their own safety and for the benefit of understanding the human body and furthering science.

Totally agree with you there.  Even for those that have issues with substance abuse, even though the vast majority is from legal substances, the ones that do have issues with illegal substances like opioids or stimulants, it's in the current environment with prohibition.  People with mental instability shouldn't be on psychoactive drugs, especially when addictive.  Everyone knows this.  But prohibition isn't only for the mentally unstable - so the rest of society has their liberty stripped away.

Dont forget the drug user who is going bankrupt.

I think that using of drugs is very harmful for any human being. everybody should avoid these kind of products to be healthy. so, there should not be any chance to take drug in a society or a country.

[iluvpie60]

Recreational drug use I see it as largely ok, even though I do not do it.

Ihave read the stats on Alcohol and way more people die from drunk driving and alcohol related activities by far.

Weed ok in my book. The hardcore drugs that make you physically addicted no. Those mess people up bad and they spiral out of control, when what they really need is stress management or a pill to help balance out their brain chemistry(a lot of pills do level you out and make you almost normal).

[Mindin]

Weed is not like the other drugs.

You can fuck yourself up while smoking weed as much as you can do it while smoking regular cigarettes or drinking alcohol. Weed is nowhere harder than those two. (actually alcohol and cigarettes are worse than weed) I don't have any experience with cocaine but i know you can also fuck yourself up easily if you overdose it. All the others like meth, heroin, ex etc are complete shit. You should never ever do any of them.

I am not a weed addict, i smoke 2-3 times a year and i've seen weed addicts as i've seen social smokers like me. It all depends on your personality in the end. If someone is retarded enough, he can even destroy himself by getting addicted to tea.

I don't think a group of teenagers smoking regular cigarettes/tobacco would let a man drown to death, on the other hand apparently a group of teenagers smoking weed will do that.

Weed is MUCH worse than cigarettes.

OK... In that case what is your opinion about the usage of the following drugs?

1. Methadone
2. Thienorphine
3. Hydromorphone
4. Hydrocodone
5. Eluxadoline
6. Buprenorphine

Al these drugs have harmful side-effects, but are perfectly legal in the United States. How can you justify the ban on weed, when the above drugs are readily available from any of the pharmacies?

Hey man, for instance methadone is meant for those already addicted to heroin, it's not like its for anyone to go and buy otc.

Try to keep things in perspective.

Right. Being addicted to Methadone is much better than being addicted to heroin. Especially if it encourages heroin use in people so that more of it will have to be used.

Drugs destroy people life, sadly there are to many people who wants to take them and the goberments legalized some of them to win profits, there should not be drugs like heroin on the streets.

Don't you have the right to live your life the way you see fit? Or do you think it would be better if you lived by my rules? If you don't think it's better to live by my rules, then there will be many that don't think it will be better to live by yours.

If heroin shouldn't be on the streets, then it wouldn't be there in reality. Yet you have no problem with doctors prescribing morphine right? Victim of ignorance with a strong opinion. They got you good. Say no to drugs right?
