When do you think people came up with the idea of being a subject of a tiny minority of sociopaths?
It is not possible that we were growing food and building shelters, living in sync with nature, and suddenly, this thought arises:
"We are so lost without a useless cunt threatening us death if we do not obey his threats, that we must invent this to help us being civilized."
How insane is this concept of a bunch of worst people, who are the worst by definition; these are people who think they are better than anyone else and want to order others around, because there is nothing else they know or are good at.
Giving these people control over our lives is a mental illness programmed into us through generations of indoctrination.
Many people believe in government's propaganda claiming to have declared the war on drugs, while, as in every case when it is about a government, it is nothing but fear mongering. These hypocrites declare the war on an inanimate object, lost it, while whatever drug their sponsors are pushing is pure gold for them.
How about this little known fact?

We must be fed this cancer of dependency from useless sociopathic actors, we call politicians, because otherwise, it is impossible to find any reason why anyone would need a ruler, who tells everyone what they need and extorts at least half of our property to pay for it.
Anything that government ever does or "gives", has to be stolen first and wasted on idiotic bureaucracy and other cretinism.
How about each of us decides to which ideas we wish to contribute voluntarily?
Did anyone ask me if I want to pay for bringing "peace" through genocide? How about flying hotel for our modern day pharaohs?
Picture the balls on these obsolete apes. To think they know best what everyone wants?
Who likes people like that? Everyday, we find these people to be idiots and we do not wish to be around them.
Only if they are called "politicians" they suddenly can tell us whatever we want to hear, never ever deliver what they promise, can't be fired from this "service providing" nonsense... if a garbage man fails his 3 months trial, he is fired. People who decide of life and death don't?|
To believe these worst people are necessary to protect us from hypothetical bad people, that might want to control us, is insanity by definition.
You may know people who abuse drugs. You may even had a family member who died in connection to drug abuse.
I am very sorry for your loss, but please consider that what you think may not be 100% correct.
I will discuss the psychology aspect of it in a moment, but let's get the ethical aspect out of the way first.
Do you like beer? Alcohol is well known to be one of the most harmful, addictive drugs related to most of violent crimes.
Violence has never been connected to for example marijuana. It is a relaxing medicine.
Sure, that abuse of any relaxant for many years can have some withdrawal effects, and if someone was using it to calm their issues, when they stop, these issues are still there and together with withdrawal effects (which is not the case for majority), they make you want to find something else that will resolve your mental problems. It just does not work like this.
Are you per chance advocating killing people, caging them and spending billions on war on an inanimate object that has much more many victims than drug abuse?
For example if you like a glass of wine, do you think you should be forced into a rape-camp? While for example war in Afganistan has been a takeover of worlds largest heroin production, by Bush family, who used army to spread this terrible drug and capitalise on the suffering... while murdering civilians who sell what other want?
There are people who want to take drugs, there are people who want to grow, collect poppy, make opium your doctor prescribes daily... I mean, who are the people who want to order others around and tell them what they want or what is best for them?
Blaming weed for deep personal issues is a huge generalisation. If someone has mental problems, they escape from them to alcohol or anything else.
Do you have an occasional beer or wine? Would you like to be put in a cage for this?
Here is a government study on alcohol:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3170096/
Would you say it is quite hypocritical for a government to connect alcohol to homicides, violence and chronic diseases and making it absolutely legal?
Could it be connected to the fact they cash in on it through extortion called taxation?
Is it moral to destroy people's lives if they want to try much less harmful substances with scientifically confirmed therapeutic values?
Since I hate hypocritical, violent, sociopathic retards called "a government", here are some other publications:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2014/08/19/alcohol-is-still-the-deadliest-drug-in-the-united-states-and-its-not-even-close/
Since I am not a big fan of the Washington Post, one more, if you have any doubts:

Drugs did not kill your relative. They did not get the help they needed and looked for it somewhere else.
It is their scream for help, not scream for being punished. It is a dopamine disorder, that has not so much to do with a substance, but rather some life situation that they are unable to cope with.
Quite possibly the reason could be some heartbreak or abusive father, or whatever. What they need is a psychedelic experience under guidance of a shaman or a psychologist. Self-medicating with weed and trying ever stronger substances to resolve issues deep within the psyche will not help, unless it is under guidance of a psychiatrist or some sort of guide. It probably did not hurt them either. They just needed help. I would not blame an inanimate object.
Why opiates prescribed by some charlatan are "obviously amazing" and not prescribed are a source of all evil?
It is not the same substance?
You can use a brick to build a house. You can use it to split a head.
Here is a psychologist explaining this:

Here is a 16 years research:

Here is what UN and World Health Organisation has to say on this matter:
http://www.drugpolicy.org/blog/united-nations-and-world-health-organization-call-drug-decriminalization
Here is an example of Portugal confirmed by many sources:

I think we can consider this myth to be debunked and put it between fairy tales where it belongs.
