Anything and everything is psychologically addictive.

That's my only point.

And while I've never taken them, I think it's safe to assume the whole roid rage thing is greatly overblown.
used to know a guy was about 350 lbs.of roided up juice monkey who hardly ever worked out,took xanax by the handful to stay calm but still managed to beat the shite out of his girlfriend.while it may vary with users,this guy's roid rage was very obvious.he eventually got busted for selling roids out of his "gym"
but sure they should be legalized and taxed just like alcohol.

Correlation does not equate to causation.

There has been no scientific study which has concluded that anabolic steroid use increases the likelihood of aggressive or violent behavior.

Most instances involving supposed "roid rage" involved additional drug usage or medication which might have exacerbated such behavior. Also, many of these individuals previously displayed a violent temperament prior to engaging in the use of steroids.

So did you visit the thread right below this one about the drunk driver that killed 5 people, including a couple of children?

No point to legalize it. People who want it are going to do it regardless

Chris Benoit bruh


...was on a shite ton of other drugs and medication during the murder-suicide tragedy.

quote:

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We analyzed the urine of Chris Benoit for the presence of steroids. He had been using testosterone at least within some reasonably short period of time prior to the time that he died. Nancy Benoit, we found three different drugs in her system. The first was hydrocodone. We also found hydromorphone. And finally, we found the drug called Xanax, or Alprazolam, in Daniel Benoit, the 7-year-old child. We found his blood to be positive for Alprazolam, or Xanax. Xanax is not a drug that would normally be given to a child for any, I would say, routine purposes. Based upon this finding and the autopsy findings, it is our opinion that Daniel Benoit was sedated by Xanax at the time that he was murdered.

That burden falls on the user, not society. Most everything carries risk.

Ask A-Rod and numerous other athletes that got caught more than once for taking PED's... why would they risk losing millions of $$ after the first positive test?


Athletes take PEDs so the CAN make millions. They don't take them because they are addicted to it.

Sure. But they get to sign a waiver giving up rights to treatments for gynomastia, psychological issues, hormone suppression, kidney and/or liver problems, vascular problems, joint problems, and fertility problems.

Other than that, yea steroids are perfectly safe. I shouldn't have to pay for someone's dumb decisions.


YES! We need to do this before eating at fast foods, restaurants, fair grounds and before you buy most of your processed groceries. These are way worse for you than steroids, or at least it affects and harms way more people than legal roids ever will.

Plus if you wanted to do it all natty, you could just fast for 24 hrs and increase your natural HGH by 20x, or 2,000%. Women can get similar improvements up to 16x, or 1,600%.

Which takes years, often decades of abuse.

Sauce can kill a liver and a heart in a fraction of that time.
