A pathetic proposal, to say the least!
Europeans must embrace true values that enhance life and standards-of-living.
Anything related to drugs, in whatever form, degenerates humanity.
Soon enough we will be legalising 'theft' in an effort to improve GDP and growth, as European colonialists have done in Africa and Asia where oppression and exploitation ruled. Chickens are now returning home to roost!
Comparing canabis to theft does make no sense. The only thing they do have in common is that both are illegal in most countries. It is not true that anything related to drugs degenerates humanity. Think about all the drugs which are selled everyday in our pharmacies. They enhanced or saved many lives. In addition, as soon as you compare canabis to alcohol or cigarettes, there is no logic counterargument for the legalization anymore. It is very simple to imagine what happens if it will be legalized: look at the netherlands or at canada for example.
Dear Maria May - you are misinterpreting my statements to suit your argument.
Your statement doesn't make any sense whatsoever and seems very much based in ignorance and stigma. How is doing an activity that literally has no influence on anyone else the same as stealing from another person!? Do you know that alcohol is a drug? Or sugar? Even music is a drug. Every substance that alters the mind is a drug. You're suggesting that we should ban literally everything in the world that makes us human. No one is proposing to take away your favourite candy or toy. We want to choose for ourselves what we put in our body. As long as I'm not hurting/affecting anyone else the government should have no say on this. Especially considering how MDMA is helping treat PTSD, ketamine helps treat depression, LSD is used to help people stop smoking, and I can name many other examples of why these drugs should be regulated. If you don't know shit about a subject then GTFO.
You're not the boss over me. I AM! Now let me do whatever drug I want and I won't bother you either.
