The criteria should be: 1) How physically dangerous is the drug (toxicity, side effects, etc.) 2) How addictive is the drug 3) What effect does it have on a society that people take that drug (and this can't just be broad generalizations that people so often rely on, it has to be based on something rational and something provable) Using any other criteria that aren't based on some kind of evidence or research is too unstable of a foundation for a criminal justice system to justify punishing people for using those drugs. Its a very regressive kind of attitude to do otherwise. |
Yeah, for instance, I wouldn't dare do heroine, you would be hooked to that instantly. It's weird that weed is illegal,
it's probably safer than alcohol, IMO. But, everyone nowadays just pops pills to get their high.
