So what actually makes a drug bad?
We don't consider medicines to be drugs? As they help us when we're poorly.
But why are drugs bad? When they make us feel good?
We generally see drugs as bad, because of the effects that they can have on the body and on the mind. We have seen the long term effects of what drugs can do to us and how they can effect us. This leads us to believe that drugs are bad.
However, it is ironic how many people believe that drugs are fine, despite the warnings they continue to use and purchase them. Many drugs are now illegal and the penalties for obtaining or using these drugs are high. This is mainly due to the way they affect your mind and the way you perceive the world around you, and the potential hazard that you become when under the influence.
Although, if this was the case then why isn't alcohol or nicotine classed as illegal substances? When perhaps, alcohol affects you more than other drugs and cigarettes can also kill you.
When we look at the reasons behind why certain drugs are illegal, there are very little differences between the A Class and the readily available ones. For example, it is possible to get naturally sourced legal drugs with the same effects as Cannabis or Cocaine from the Internet or large festivals, such as the Download Fest.
Medicines are also drugs and we rarely consider this when we go to the doctors or the pharmacy. Paracetamol is fine. Aspirin is fine. So why is E wrong? You could say that the difference would be the healing qualities the medicines possess. I agree with this.
Drugs are moral if/and only if they are being taken to provide aid in a situation. Personally I don't smoke, and although alcohol is a poison to the body, I will consume it occasionally, but not frequently.
So yeah... my thoughts on drugs ;)
