LargeWrench is of course absolutely correct. But these "dangerous" drugs need to remain illegal because they literally will open your mind- you'll see through every piece of crap on the news for what it really is...
Tobacco? Does F*ck all but make you unfit and die prematurely.
Alcohol? Nice in moderation, makes you a wee bit creative but one gulp too many you've gone over the edge and are into stoopid slurred land. Makes you fat, costs a fortune.
I've posted it before and I stand by it. People who have never taken "illegal" drugs should not ever be given the power to dictate whether their use should be legal or illegal. They do not understand what they're talking about.
My 40th back in 2008 was a brilliant night. My brother and I picked and ate freshly, about 80-100 magic mushrooms(Liberty Caps) each. Right on the field next to my partners house...Psilocybin is a very potent drug, they're still experimenting with it for many uses to treat a lot of psychological disorders.
I first tripped with mushrooms aged 15 in 1984. I'm not mad either
But if you've never taken them, please don't tell me if I can or can't.
As the late and exceptionally great Bill Hicks once said:
I'll tell you something about drugs. I used to do drugs, but I'll tell you something honestly about drugs, honestly, and I know it's not a very popular idea, you don't hear it very often anymore, but it is the truth: I had a great time doing drugs. Sorry. Never murdered anyone, never robbed anyone, never raped anyone, never beat anyone, never lost a job, a car, a house, a wife or kids, laughed my ass off, and went about my day
Or an even better one to put down an anti drug heckler....
Your denial is beneath you, and thanks to the use of hallucinogenic drugs, I see through you
