Default Re: Should drugs be illegal?

I don't have a problem with the legalization of drugs. I don't take them and it has nothing do with the legality of it. Apparently, drug abuse has been dropping significantly in Portugal since they decriminalized drugs. It's just like kids and alcohol. The man telling us we can't have it makes some people want it even more.

I also think that decriminalizing it can help the government regulate it. We would have a lot less street crime and many fewer innocent people dying because Jo Schmo had to get his heroine fix.

Finally, I completely support strict drug testing for jobs, sports, certain activities, etc. I think jobs should test their employees regularly. Drugs should be legal, but if you don't want drug addicts working for you, then so be it. I think driving should be limited for people that test positively for really hard core drugs and hallucinogens.


Edit: MrGiggles ninjad my portugal comment...an hour before I posted it. My bad.
