If you're able to, re-read the thread again.

I've certainly never said anything that would contradict your open question.

If you can, concentrate, and see what I've actually posted, many, many times.

You'll see that in reality what I said is that there's some risk taking recreational drugs, and it's nothing to do with quality control.

Some users suffer very little debilitating side effects, and not all 'soft' drug users go on to become addicted, and dependent on drugs such as heroin.

Although a minority will.

A risk that will increase, in my opinion, because some would see it as a geeen light, and usage would increase, if recreational drugs were decriminalised.

Having had some vast experience of drugs taken recreationally, both socially with successful professionals, who would be viewed as worthwhile members of society, and who suffer very few side-effects, to working with young teens, who are forced to sell their bodies on the streets to feed their addictions, this is my considered opinion.

I won't be changing my mind on the matter, any time soon.

Certainly nothing I've read in this thread has tempted me into doing so.
