Nonsense. I've known many people who have smoked a little pot and remained more together than many sober people I know.
You can cite all the personal exceptions you wish, I too have known hundreds of dopers and the only one who ever excused it besides the desire to get high, was she “liked the taste” )which in itself was BS.
Who said anything about not wanting to get high? The question is: is it in the nature of drugs other than alcohol that they always be used to the point of losing judgment? The answer is no - although they sometimes are so used.
My point is the motivation to get high, alone, is enough to make drugs abusive, dangerous, and thus illegal, by law and by logic.
No logic there - many people are motivated to get drunk to the point of losing judgment, while other drugs can be and are used short of that point.
We tried banning alcohol, it didn’t work.
Banning drugs isn't working either.
