All drugs should be legalised, change my mind.

Hello! - Nobody would support anything like death and addictions. I believe that we should regulate the drug market in such a way so that the buyer is always aware of the danger of the drug in order to buy it. I don't think that people should have the right to drive or do potentially dangerous things while high. The reason for this is that by for example driving while high, then you are exposing other people of a risk which they have not agreed upon. Therefore its wrong. - I support the legalisation of drugs because of many reasons. The first reason is a moral perspective. If we can regulate what an individual do with his or her own body, we are then implying that the individual does not own his or her own body. If the individual would have a total ownership of his or her own body, then there would not be a problem. If I owned my body, then why would anyone have the right to prevent me from using my body the way I choose to? - Reason number two is that the legalisation of drugs would in my opinion stop the development of new, less expensive and potentially more dangerous drugs. Take cocaine for example. The main reason that cocaine got as popular as it did, was because of the high marijuana prices. If the marijuana price would have been lower, cocaine would have never been popular. That brings the question, why were the marijuana price so high? The answer to that question is that it were illegal. If marijuana would have been legal, the price would have been low thanks to competition. But since it were illegal, it got harder to sell, so the drug dealers could set a higher price. By then, the demand for a new, less expensive, and potentially more dangerous drug also went up. - So my point is, the more money we put into the war on drugs, the harder it get for the drug dealers, forcing the price to go up and forcing a faster development of new, cheap, and more powerful drugs. This is the reason for so called internet drugs today. If the price would be low, nobody would develop new drugs, because there is no demand for it. - People who are against the legalisation of drugs usually believe: If we legalise heroin, everybody is going to use heroin!Well, how many people reading this would start using heroin if it were legal? I bet nobody would start using it just because it would be legal. Nobody think like this: oh I cant take care of myself, and I don't want to use drugs, so I need the governments laws to take care of me!Nobody see the law as an obstacle for drugs, you either want to do drugs, or you don't. Simple as that. - I do however understand the risks involved with drugs, and I'm aware that some people commit crimes while high. But this is a really bad argument against the legalisation, because 1 out of 3 adults have tried drugs at some point in their lifetime. But far from 1 out of 3 adults have a drug problem. This means that most people are actually able to have a good life while doing drugs. This means that the people who use this argument is taking an exceptional and small case in order to prove that all cases are bad, which is an extremely bad way of proving a point. - If we would make drugs legal, then I think that the drug addicts should be offered help with their problems, and I also think that the drug addicts would dare to seek help, since they have not done anything illegal. The other alternative is that we put them in prison because a victimless- crime. In prison there is a higher rate of drugs and criminality than there is out in the real world. In prison there are new contacts for the addicts so that they can buy more drugs, and take a new step into criminality. Those people need help, and nothing else. - You have your way to live your life, I have my way, but the correct and the only way, it does not exist. To say that the government get to decide what people can, and cannot do with their lives is terrifying.
