At What Age Should It Become Legal To Consume Drugs, If Any?

[blood-shard]

I live i denmark and you can buy alcohol at an age of 16 wich i personaly think is outrageous. Dont ****ing do drugs guys or try that shit xD i gues its funny grabbin a cold one whit the friends now and then but seriously 16 years old ? that is crazy. You have to be 18 here to buy tobacco but 16 to buy alcohol and get drunk like a pig, they could atleast have swapped it around so it was 18 for alcohol and 16 for tobacco...

On a completely unrelated note, but which did not warrant its own thread, public service strike in Ireland tomorrow. Everyone's involved. Even the gardaí, although they're technically not allowed to go on strike, but they're going to do things like not give out parking tickets.

It is a great movie - I learnt most of my rhetoric from that guy's "wisdoms"

Speaking of cigarettes, I'd like to argue that they should be banned, because I'm asthmatic and they make me wheeze just being around them. Like most anti-cigarette people my reasons are utterly selfish - I don't give a crap if you're killing yourself: go ahead! Knock yourself out (literally), just don't kill me in the process!

Here in France 5 out of every 4 people smoke - if you see someone walking down the street without a cigarette in each hand you immediately think "they've hurt their hand!"
Seriously, I'd prefer it if people shot up or snorted coke, that way they're not bothering me

If it didn't have so many health consequences, or stink like death, I'd probably smoke occasionally. Now only if we can genetically engineer a crop that can be smoked and not have a horrid smell and health consequences...
Though, plants are loaded with all sorts of aromatics.

Lol. My friend Conor is mildly asthmatic. He was worse when he was younger, doesn't need his inhaler that much anymore. Used to get asthma attacks when he was young anyway. He smokes though. Tobacco and cannabis. And drinks.

[Wilbefast]

Yeah, well it's possible to build up a tolerance to all kinds of toxic shiz, but then do you really want to

And what does drinking have to do with asthma? Unless it accidentally goes down the wrong hole...

[Renegade_Turner]

I didn't say it had anything at all to do with asthma.
