This might seem harsh but there is such a thing as self cleansing of the gene pool.
Drugs, mind altering substances, have been around for as long as there have been humans.
You will not stop people that want to use them from using them.
Those that are too weak willed to resist addiction normally know they are too weak willed to resist. They should never use them. If they do, and become addicted, it is their fault, not the drugs fault.
As I said, this may seem harsh but it's also a fact of life.
My child died of a drug overdose.
You have just told me his death cleansed the gene pool? And that when he was 13 he should have been strong enough to not experiment with the marijuana that led him through the gateway of hell to bigger and better thrills?
I believe in karma to people who give such hurt, but am trying to overcome it. May God protect you from your stupidity and never suffer loss like mine. On the other hand, if you or someone you ove is reborn as an Amsterdam junkie, it might be poetic
I haven't touched marijuana in years and if they legalized it tomorrow, I still wouldn't touch it. In my younger days, however, I smoked acres of the stuff.
That being said, the most dangerous thing about marijuana is having a drug conviction show up on a background check. More lives have been damaged by this than the drug itself.
