Oh snap. And worse than LSD?
Technically, pepsi is way more bad than water.

Ya, but nobody is arguing that pepsi isn't harmful. Or did you have some other point that I missed?

No............ just saying that just because something is deemed more dangerous than another thing, it doesn't mean either thing is dangerous relative to most other things in the world.

And still better than tobacco + alcohol. May as well legalize Ecstasy + LSD, too. Definitely LSD, that was my favorite.

You don't think X is dangerous? Or LSD?

What's the rate of population growth? Are those numbers just keeping pace?

Maybe Narcan is keeping this problem from fixing itself.

I just know that guns are the problem and we need to get them out of the hands of the general public ASAP!

No, rates are increasing pretty dramatically.

I'd be curious to see how it correlates with behavioral drugging of children. Are we seeing a large spike among people that as kids were on Ritalin or something of that nature? Are the prescription drugs as kids retarding the coping mechanisms of adults years later? As a recovering alcoholic, I can tell you that eventually the chemical dosage you're using needs to change or be upped.

I have heard it argued that certain heroin addicts can live semi-normally because they understand their dosages, and thus, should never OD.

I do not understand that argument. They're still addicts. They're still injecting poison into their systems. Eventually, it's going to kill you.

I cannot find it, but I did read an article about how kids (<18, maybe < 25) shouldn't do pot due to possible interference with brain development. Again, feels like pot should be in the >=21 category, like alcohol.

Also, edibles are pretty fun.

That rings a bell, so I guess I confirm that? And yes, I'd like to see it at 21 and over.
