Legalize all drugs.

[caravel]

This issue is a double edged sword. While legalising them makes sense on paper. A few years down the line once the class c drugs such as marijuana have worked there way into society, as alcohol and tobacco are at present, then the effects could be irreversable. Setting up more multi billion pound industries like the tobacco industry is also not a idea. Legalising something sends out the wrong message to young people, it basically says "it's ok to do that", it makes drugs socially acceptable. Since marijuana was downgraded from class b to class c and since PC Plod started turning a blind eye to it, it is now rife in the town where I live, especially among teenagers and school kids.
