It took quite a while for this thread to be made, but it's here. What do you think should be status on drugs? Ban them? Legalize all of them?

If I could make all drugs illegal besides for medical purposes I would, but unfortunately is becoming impossible considering the amount of people doing it, as well as the fact that a large portion of the economy comes from tobacco.
This does not include alcohol though, alcohol should be allowed.

I believe that proper restrictions can be applied. Banning drugs has never worked, try to ban something legal and see how that goes. Let's suppose we banned tobacco, would that work? Would people stop using it? I don't think so, and we'd see more tobacco dealers around with guns to protect themselves from the police. But does anyone go around shooting people because of tobacco? Of course, it's probably happened before, but not as often as it'd happen if we made tobacco illegal.
Make all drugs legal, but place a few restrictions on some, such as cocaine, for example - make sure the person is responsible first before they can use it, or only allow it at specialized places, where the person can be taken care of, as a person under the effects of cocaine can be aggressive. This works in the Netherlands, and with Portugal making all drugs legal as long as the person has no more than a 10-day supply of the substance, and it hasn't made Portugal worse. On the other hand, America's war on drugs is causing more harm than it's doing any good; and even if one day America "wins the war", they most likely won't have that many benefits. Land of the free people who are not allowed to choose what they do with their bodies.
Or, at least, make cannabis legal. Not as deadly as several legal things, banning cannabis is nothing but biased.

Hainosaurus is now congeneric with Tylosaurus. I guess that means that it's Tylosaurus bernardi now.

Alcohol makes people more "unconscious" than cannabis does, so I see no problem with making it legal. Just place a warning on the product that it is possibly dangerous. It's your body, the state should not dictate what to do with it as long as it harms nobody else.
So imo, make all drugs legal and place restrictions as necessary for drugs that can cause the user to be aggressive. Otherwise, if it only harms the user or doesn't even harm the user, why not make it legal? The person buys it with their money and causes no harm to anybody else, in fact their purchase benefits the economy. Making it illegal, however, not only doesn't stop drug dealers, but it also forces them to defend themselves from the law, and this is what causes drug-related shootings most of the time.
So basically, banning drugs kills more people than making them legal.

I watched a documentary on the matter today, it only thaught me how to be disgusted with governments, mostly the US government and shows how governments demonize certain things, such as drugs, only to further manipulate the population.

I'm torn between legalizing all drugs or legalizing them with restriction. Criminalizing drugs has brought nothing but harm and people can do what they want with their own lives as long as it doesn't effect others. With the restriction would probably just be rehab when addicted to extremely addictive substances.

I think it's wrong to give the population a right they don't understand. Let them know the effects of drugs, make them responsible, but don't ban drugs. Make people understand their situation. If you legalize all drugs and place no restrictions or do not inform people about them, people will be too late to realize some drugs aren't precisely our friends. So basically, place a few restrictions, let people acknowledge that drugs can harm them, and let them do to their body as they please.
Tl;dr, to let people use drugs is one thing, to let people use drugs and know their effects beforehand is another.

It is common knowledge that certain drugs cause some effects and whether it is legalized or not anti-drug campaigns that educate people about the effects will still exist.

Even if Mexico does, building a wall isn't like going to solve any issues. The USA has internal issues they need to fix looking at themselves instead of blaming others for the crap they do intentionally.

Drugs like cocaine and heroin do nothing positive for anyone and have been proven to have surprisingly damaging effects, especially on long term use: www.drugfreeworld.org/drugfacts/cocaine/effects-of-cocaine.html'Don’t touch cocaine. I spent two years in jail because of this drug. And when I got out, life was so hard I started taking the drug again. I know 10 girls who became prostitutes because of coke. It’s much more extreme and degrading than we believe. At the time we don’t realize to what degree it destroys us.” —Shawne' I don't believe these types of drugs should be allowed to anyone, even in regulation. It will not really stop the problem of illegal drug use currently, and will just give people even easier access to it. It doesn't really do anything apart from damage certain parts of society. Also it just seems like a short-term easy way out if you are slightly depressed or not feeling completely content. Life for most people will have constant problems to be solved and often people who use drugs are just trying to completely avoid the problems at hand. For people who have true depression there is far better treatment available rather than drugs like cocaine.
