Probably because not everyone is okay with thousands of people coming to their city every year just to take drugs.

    Alcohol's not a drug, it's a drink.

      You can dissolve MDMA in water, making it a drink. LSD is often liquid before being deposited on a stamp. Molecules are what matters, not the structure or state, and alcohol (like tobacco) is effectively a drug.

      I'm far from a puritan - I thoroughly enjoy my beer (and rum, and slivovice ...etc) - but let's be honest, the addictive properties of alcohol together with the societal, social and physical damage that it can cause either match or exceed substances which are otherwise treated as "drugs". This is not to say I think alcohol should be banned or more strongly controlled, but rather that we should really rethink how we harshly we view things like cannabis

      Ethanol is literally a psychoactive recreational drug.
