> I never saw anyone die for a glass of wine a day, I guess that there is plenty of cases of death for regular drugs users. And I've never seen anyone die from taking "regular drugs" recreationally. This is just a stupid comparison. You're comparing "a glass of wine" to a "drug user". A more apt comparison would be "someone who drinks three bottles of wine a day" and "a person who smokes heroin/crack/amphetamines daily" (IV use would be closer to drinking bottles of hard booze). Both of these groups of people have an increased risk of death, permanent health damage, mental issues and a risk to others around them. The theory that everyone who tries drugs will become an addict and a daily user simply isn't true. > It's simply disconcerting that you encourage the use of illegal drugs saying that are not dangerous on a public website. It's a perfectly valid opinion that drugs should not be illegal. You do not have to agree with that and you should definitely not be offended by it. It's a discussion that will likely be taken in your country too in the next few decades. No-one is saying they aren't dangerous (and if they are, that's misleading), but making comparisons to e.g. alcohol and tabacco is a valid thing to do. And if you look at the hard facts, the illegal status isn't that obviously justified.
