We should discourage by educating/warning people how bad it is. It's really worked for cigarettes.
In what way is a THC-infused chocolate chip cookie consumed in the privacy of my own home "terribly unhealthy" in relation to a regular one? In what way is THC eaten - not smoked - harmful to anyone? Got a link to a study, or something?
I don't even know what THC is, CD. Honestly what I had in mind when I made that comment were things like Heroin, Cocaine, Meth...
Those drugs should be legal but highly discouraged through educating and consistently informing people about how harmful they are. If a particular "drug" (like weed for example) is not harmful, then there would be no basis for discouraging it. I figure it's a given that weed should be legal anyway, so my comment was aimed at the more hardcore drugs.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
