I don’t drugs, so I don’t have a dog in the fight to legalise them. However, the government should be honest about drugs and let people do them if they choose. In principle, treat it like alcohol and regulate it to ensure safety.
LOL!! How has that worked for alcohol? People still become alcoholics, people still die from alcohol-induced diseases, people still contract alcohol-induced dementia, psychosis, and other mental disorders, they drive while intoxicated, kill themselves and other people while driving drunk, commit crimes under the influence, and commit crimes to get money to buy alcohol and drugs. So much for ensuring safety.
Really? You don't ever have to interact with or deal with people other than yourself?

Well sure - just look at how well that's worked in Oregon. < / s >
There is no such thing as doing drugs being safe - this makes as much sense as saying we should allow for skydiving without a parachute, just regulate it to ensure safety. They are, by definition, not safe, and more people consuming them will further tax our already strained health care system...not to mention make the population even more brain docile than it already is.
