As opposed to schedule 2 drugs like meth, coke and heroin. Jesus the hypocrisy is suffocating me. Good article!
- Nursie 14y agoI love the circular justification here. They are schedule 1 because they have no recognized medicinal value, and no, you can't research any medicinal value because they are schedule 1! Like most drug-related laws in western countries (that I know of), it comes down to a moral stance. We have decided these things are bad, regardless of any of your irritating 'facts' or 'evidence'. If you question us or stand against us you are soft on crime and are not thinking of the children.
- threejay 14y agoThere is no circular reasoning as your entire premise is flawed. Schedule 1 substances are defined as having no currently accepted medical use, but this does not preclude the ability to test for medical use going forward.
- Nursie 14y agoExcept in practice it usually does mean exactly that, as explained in the article.
