Are you saying that people do not use heroin and cocaine to achieve some kind of 'high'....and as some part of their 'social scene'? The other thread wasn't called Legalise Cannabis....it didn't specify which illegal drugs should be legalised. You tell us that cannabis has caused no deaths........but you do not take into account the users who go on to other illegal drugs when cannabis fails to give the user the buzz that they are looking for. Neither do you take into account, those whose mental health has been affected by the use of this substance. As Less has said, there are regulations which are in place for the sale of alcohol and tobacco. And as for statistics, you can make them prove any damn thing you want. |

I am talking about cannabis alone = 0 deaths I will ask you .. please put up statistics regarding alcohol & lets see the difference as to which is more dangerous & how alcohol effects the body & mind over the long term . The amount of harm & money that alcohol costs this country is huge but that is OK because its legal & it can be taxed |

Re: Should we 'legalise illegal drugs'? - Poll.
This is primarily a poll. It isn't supposed to be like the other thread.
The thread is not about legalising drugs at all....it is about canvassing votes in support of, or against, legalising drugs.... that is something very different. I have never said that alcohol and tobacco are without their dangers .......I don't feel that I need to provide you with statistics, statistics can be manipulated to make them mean what you want them to mean(i.e. that is, in favour of whatever argument you are putting forward). |

Despite simple explanations, this post shows that you just don't get it. One is a discussion. One is a poll - couldn't be simpler. |

Did you get that figure wrong? 'Million if not billions'? In 2009/10 alcohol tax raised £14.6 BILLION, tobacco tax raised £11.1 BILLION in 2010/11. The country makes an overall profit out of it's drinkers/smokers, unlike the illegal drug takers. Anyone going in hospital with alcohol/tobacco problems should get a private room and a personal care team! |
