Why legalize weed but not Cocaine or Heroin?

I've never understood the stance on drugs like Cocaine and Heroin. If weed were to be legalized, why not cocaine and heroin. The danger of those two drugs is exaggerated to an extreme (just like marijuana is called the gateway drug and there is more nonsense out on it).

Why does it matter if someone consumes something that does not affect you at all. Cigarettes kill your lungs and damage others around you yet it is legal. Alcohol is responsible for more death than a drug like cocaine ever will be. 

Cocaine and heroine are not the only drugs that I want legalized either. Many other like LSD, Crystal meth, etc. 

It seems like the drugs that provide the greatest euphoria are the ones that are banned( Soma, cocaine, LSD, mushrooms). In fact, if you take both Cocaine and heroin at the same time, which is safe as long as you don't overdoes, it provides a greater feeling than an ORGASM for more than TWENTY minutes. 

Last I checked, weed didn't ruin peoples lives and made them into a dick sucking junkie robbing their own mothers to shoot a needle in their vein.m25105

Alcohol can also ruin peoples lives quite as easily. And if heroin is consistantly avaliable legally, it won't be a problem. Same with cocain. Those drugs are cheap to make. If avalaible, there is no problem with them

lol @ "the dangers of heroin are exaggerated"

Also, if heroin does destroy someone, it is their choice.

What are the reasons why cocaine and heroine should be illegal? By what standard. Cigaratess and alcohol cause thousands of deaths each year. "Hard core drug." Yes, it is hard core in the euphoria it gives you. And how does it affect you if I do take cocain and heroine? In what way?

If you can get a consistant supply of heroin, you'll be fine (which would happen if it were legal).

You didn't answer any of my questions. You are just sidestepping.

Because heroin and cocaine actually kill the user, and affect more people financially and emotionally.

What??? Cocaine/heroine/LSD/meth (and even weed) affect far more people than just those who do the drugs. Every time some junky robs another person to get money for their drugs it's affecting other people, every time they drive under the influence they are potentially affecting other people. That is such an ignorant argument. If cocaine/heroine/meth was legal, it would kill far more people than alcohol, it's just not readily available to the general pop like alcohol is. I do think that weed should be legalized, for the most part, but for reasons far more logical than this. 

Your post went from stupid to thoughtless the second you typed "heroine + cocaine=safe."

What happens if you sniff too much cocaine or inject too much heroin?

It's physically impossible for a human being to overdose on Marijuana. 

The same is not true for Heroin or Cocaine.  In fact it's quite easy to overdose on both of these drugs and that's what makes them so lethal.  If you manage to survive using them, you may acquire a crippling physical addiction to them. 

Once again, not possible with Marijuana. 

Marijuana is a plant, not a purified manufactured drug that can kill you in a single use.  I'm all for Marijuana, but Cocaine and Heroin are both things that I'm okay with being banned.  

The OP's original argument was alcohol, though. And the reality is it is very easy to overdose and die from alcohol and many people do each and every year. In addition, alcohol is highly addictive, and even if one doesn't overdose and die tens of thousand of people have their lives ruined due to alcohol addiction.

It's not all that different from cocain and heroine.  They are definetly stronger drugs, but if the idea is banning things based on harm, there is no way in hell alcohol should get a pass.  It's a double standard.

I'm still pretty anti-marijuana, but it has medical benefits and isn't nearly as addictive as people say.

Cocaine and Heroine are cripplingly addictive and rule your lives in most cases.
