Are you really trying to equate prohibiting soda to prohibiting heroin?


I believe they are different.

I am for restricting freedom to access of opiods though. Even if that means a prescription.

So, with that reasoning, selling heroin to children won't change anything.

I mean, banning a substance has never worked.

You can't honestly think there would be less opioid abuse if it was available over the counter with zero restrictions, can you?

Nobody’s telling you what you can buy, eat, or drink. You can still get whatever you want.

I doubt you would see a major increase. Do you use Heroin now?

Probably not much. Anything you want you can get. The illegal nature of drugs makes them extremely profitable, and dangerous.

I imagine ODs from Fentanyl would drop dramatically, and I imagine most legal dealers would avoid selling to kids.

Government is just making it more expensive. Sort of a punishment for wanting a Sprite

if its legal tomorrow are you going to run out and shoot up herion? frick no you arent, because people dont use herion because they know what it does to you.

herion being legal or illegal is not stopping anyone that wants to use it from using it.

i have a mother who is a pill head. i promise no matter what the legality is, if she wants it, she will get it.

if restricting something works so well...then why not restrict murders?

you cant legislate moral behavior.

all we are doing right now is enriching violent people through the black market and making it dangerous on those that do use.

as far as restricting over the counter opiods....yea thats what got us to this point.

record year for ODs but we still have dumbasses trying to keep the status quo since it works so fricking well.

i swear some of you really really lack critical thinking skills.

So, you support heroin and opiod marketing to children.

Not sure why this is so hard to work around. Nothing will change and it prevents you from getting in the way of how businesses operate.

how stupid are you? really how dumb are you?

im for herion being legal for people of age of consent to be able to buy it if they want to.

did i say anything about marketing?


are you really trying to say that cokes = herion?

im really blown away by your stupidity.

first off did i say it should be legal for discpencery to be able to advertise? did i say we should suddenly throw out age of consent?

did i mention suddenly anyone of any age should be able to buy anything...frick no.

how many kids are walking to McDonalds and ordering a happy meal without their parents? how fricking many?

are you saying that would happen with herion?

its like you know nothing about personal property rights.

the kid has personal property rights, if an adult is giving him herion before the age of consent then they are violating his ppr...aka child abuse.

this stupidity comes from you trying to equate herion with soda which is the dumbest take in the history of man kind.

roger he completly lacks critical thinking skills, ignore him.

FT nobody said anarchy.

dispenceries have rules to go by just to get a liscense. its a regulated industry

restruants only have to provide a clean kitchen/eating space and safe food. no other restrictions to get a liscense. its a non regulated industry

big difference
