GHB is iffy with me. Some studies show that there could be medical benefit, and if proven so, I can see legalizing it for prescription. But the drug itself is far too dangerous to allow all citizens unlimited access to it.

It's not dangerous if used responsibly. Stupid people use way too much or mix it with alcohol and put themselves at risk. I feel it's wrong to allow the government to criminalize responsible Americans, and cause drugs to be of questionable purity and unknown dosage because a few fools try to take themselves out of the gene pool.
Should we ban guns because of the small minority of gun owners who do stupid things? I don't think so. In the case of both non-addictive drugs and guns I think we should allow adults to do what they want as long as they don't hurt anyone. If they hurt someone crack down hard.

Yes, far too dangerous. Same with alcohol. Why, just 40 oz. of tequila can easily kill a full grown adult, never mind what it might do to some poor unsuspecting toddler. Public access denied!!!
