    I agree with you. I know a lot of people who are cocaine addicts and their addiction makes them all incredibly unreliable. They stay up partying until 7am then crash for 12 hours the day of a big event. I’ve also known people who died due to tainted cocaine. It’s not a safe drug by any means. I’m all for decriminalization and treating it like a health issue, but it should not be taken lightly.

      I know people who do a bunch of dumb things that are bad for their lives - and only their lives - but they don’t become a criminal in the process.

          Yea I don’t think most people would say drugs make people better per say. But we all want to enjoy life and if you’re only harming yourself I don’t feel the state needs to get involved. The reality is removing the ostracizing elements around drug use is probably better for a society as a whole.
