Because some of them can alter consciousness and make you do bad decisions, like having unproctected sex with strangers, or drive a car and wrap it around a phone pole.
And why is alcohol legal when its another drug?
Hmmm...I guess because you need to abuse it for years and years before it damages you? Don't forget that alcohol was illegal at one time.
Do you agree that they should be illegal?
For chronically ill people, where prescription medication has failed them, I do believe that cannabis should be made available to them through a controlled bureau (We have some "Compassion Clubs" in Canada...each one varies, but one of them has an
excellent relationship with the Police Dept, I might add.... The people who want to avail themselves of the cannabis must have a doctor's note. They can only go like once every 2 weeks and they only get a small amount of cannabis. They, themselves have to go IN PERSON, if they feel too sick to go, they still have to go themselves, they can't send a friend in their place. That's basically how it works.)
Thanks.
