I think we might actually be overall in agreement, just using different language. I believed that by legalization you meant something similar to how weed was legalized in various places - fully legal with minimal restrictions akin to alcohol or tobacco.
If you're for making it fully legal but heavily regulated, somewhat akin to a prescription drug, then I more or less agree.
- ben_w 3y agoI think heroin is available on prescription in the UK? https://www.jrf.org.uk/prescribing-heroin-what-is-the-evidence#:~:text=Heroin%20has%20been%20prescribed%20in,the%20interest%20in%20prescribing%20heroin https://www.jrf.org.uk/prescribing-heroin-what-is-the-eviden.... My elevator-pitch-summary understanding of UK drugs laws is that almost anything can be prescribed by a doctor, but almost everything is illegal unless a doctor does so, and there's 3 levels of severity if you have or supply something without that authorisation.
