the crazy war on drugs and stigma is something I never really understood. Why do I when I take for example mdma, a drug that just makes me feel happy and loved, become a criminal and can go to prison? This just seems so weird. And then we have alcohol and cigarettes which are even more damaging to your body than a lot of things, and it’s completely fine.

I’d say it should be up choice. If you want to take substance x over alcohol, take it.

Controlling and encouraging safe usage is the way to go. People that want to take drugs will find and take them anyway.
