Everything is bad for you if you eat it too much, it's ok to have junk food once in a while.

Drugs are illegal because the government can't make money off street dealers. As for junk food, I think people who can't control their eating habits should be illegal, or arrested.

No there should just be more education about it. By the time an obese kid has his first health class it's usually too late.

Well junk food is alright until you have a heart attack. While coke may be more damaging than junk food you can still say the same thing. Whats the difference between a heroin addict and a junk food addict aside from weight? An addict is an addict, no matter that they're doing.

You have a better chance of getting struck by lightening or dieing from a coconut hitting you on the head. If drugs are taken responsibly, then why not let us take em?

..Right, which is why I stated earlier that it is fine until you eat too much of it.. not true for cocaine, however. The results are instantaneous.

You don't know what your body can take before your first try.

People have a chance of dieing from anesthesia, but that doesn't stop them from agreeing with the operation. People have a chance of dieing from prescription drugs, but that doesn't stop them from taking it. What you said is true, but taking heroin for the first time and saying it may kill you doesn't justify it enough to make it illegal.

I don't know if junk food should be illegal...I like it from time to time. I've wondered, since lately society is making a big deal out of health, why they don't just put stronger laws on it. Since it's legal, it can be controlled, therefore, there's nothing stopping the gaovernment from slapping a fat tax on all sorts of junk food.

Cocaine won't kill you in your first try. I promise. It's a handy little tactic to use when trying to scare people away from drugs which these anti-drug commercials like to do rather than educate the misinformed.

The difference is that prescription drugs are tested before released on the marked. And are made to help on problems.
You can't say that about drugs, though many if not all of the effects are known now. And another thing is. It isn't socially accepted.

*Sigh*

That's not the only thing that's taken into consideration when those drugs are placed on the market.

When heroin is used in the medical field, precautions are taken to ensure that the patient can handle the dose.. that doesn't happen when you're using a street variety that is not consistent. For a first time user, without any knowledge about the drug and under the "supervision" of a dealer hopped up on drugs, the chances of overdosing on the first try are relatively high..

You took the words right out of my mouth. The government touts that drugs are illegal, when in reality,it's the government that perpetuates the supply of these drugs (weed, crack/cocaine,shrooms).Why is it so easy to get an ounce of weed? Why is crack only centralized in the inner-cities? If the government can make money through drugs, it will. Where does that money go to? It funds the wars waged against Middle Eastern countries for oil and power.

Isn't it obvious that drugs aren't illegal because they're bad for you? If that were the case they would be treated as a health issue...

The war on drugs continues because the government doesn't want to lose control of the $70 billion+ every year that is spent on illegal drugs.

It's quite easy to die on your first time as

  • Since your starting out you don't know what the right dosage is.
  • The purity of the drugs varies. Someone may take a dose they think is moderate when it's so pure that they OD on it.
  • Dealers like to put all kinds of crap into the drugs. Who knows what you might be getting.

Legalizing them reduces the risk which in turn reduces profit.

Doing drugs occasionally is fine. Again it depends on the person. I do it 2-3 times a week and I'm fine. I go to college, I have a job. I'm doing just fine. No I'm not a vegetable, no I don't think my dog is talking to me.

Speculating? You've done more speculating in this thread than everyone else combined.

Taking cocaine, heroine, meth, ecstacy, LSD, and other banned narcotics responsibly is very hard.. additionally, they all have negative effects on the body. They are all much more dangerous than cheetos.

Suggesting that drugs should be legal because junk food can be unhealthy is ridiculous. I'm still trying to figure out if this is actually serious or not.

This is like saying that there shouldn't be a speed limit because knives are sharp.
