Meth Becoming a Threat in Many Cities

After smoking a little bit a meth the other day....was my first time in months. I realized how nice it is, and relatively safe it is as long as you dont binge, and have a pretty conservative limit. Drink water throughout, do something productive, or a hobby or something, eat food, and its fucking fine. I fully agree with every you have said Invalid user.

My gripes about meth earlier in the thread was based off my 1 year binge on it. Fuck that. I was an idiot.
 
I don't think you are an idiot DexterMeth. But what you have pointed out is the importance of safe drug use education.

They've spent billions of dollars telling people that drug support terrorism. Imagine what they could have done with that money if it were earmarked for harm reduction and safe use education.

There would have been so many fewer people suffering side effects and getting themselves into trouble.

Learning the art of drinking from an alcoholic teaches alcoholic habits. Learning the art of drinking from someone who enjoys a vintage wine provides a whole new sense of appreciation. :)
 
too late to comment but had to day this...

thank you for your intelligence and patience, invalid username!

the 'leap' link made my heart leap with a feeling of hope for a future with clean and safe drugs; ending what's become an era of frighteningly dangerous drug misuse, lawless persecution in the name of absurd and slef-contradicting law, painful and unfair stigma, uneducated fear and frustrating hypocrisy.

very passionately, i am behind every word you say.
 
You got a good point about people being so strung out on meth and being paranoid about being caught by the authorities, and saying making it legal would take the problems away of paranoia, but i somewhat disagree, because i used to be strung out on a legal prescription of amphetamines, and i got VERY paranoid about other shit besides the authorities.
 
Thank you hh_sonic :)

Sorry for the delayed response. I've been having internet problems and today's the first time I've been able to get on line.

It sure is a complex issue, and there is so much secondary crime resulting from a black market drug economy. :(

oh my god. Not meth! The unstoppable menace! NO!!! Been there done that. No desire to touch it for the rest of my life.

im right there with ya man. never again for me
 
In most in most cases its valid and truthful to say that the government should not have a say in goes into a person's body....

i dont think this is the case with meth, and I dont think our culture would benfit at all from it becoming legal.

the masses in america are too stupid to handle the risks associated with meth use...making it legal serves no positive effect on our country


noting that many users come to Miami's trendy South Beach strip in search of the purest, most expensive meth available.

oh yea, u know us drug users, alway looking for the most expensive deal alive.
 
im so weak when it comes to this drug. i just love the way it looks in the bag.

never a again. if i can help it.
 
many posts in this thread are evidence to the fact that responsibilty for ourselves and our bodies (i.e. responsible drug use) is by no means an easy thing to learn. so much is involved... unfortunately, the more our governments and the law it enforces on us meddle with its dogmatic regulations, the harder it becomes.

invalid usename, sorry i misspelled your nickname in my last post. glad your connection is back up!

One of the underlying themes in my posts to this thread is that attempts at limiting and/or eliminating methamphetamine has been a complete failure. Not only is methamphetamine widely available, but it is also completely unregulated, is accessible by anyone (including children), and contains large quantities of unknown contaminants (whose health impact has not been scientific assessed).

Still further, one of the serious side effects of this completely unregulated black market is the existence of illegal meth labs. The are no zoning laws, no product quality standards, no FDA certification, no quality control, no distribution control. The nightmare made real of a totally and utterly unregulated pharmaceutics laboratory, staffed by unqualified people, and without any mandate to follow federal safety guidelines. With the result being an ever present danger of exposure to highly toxic chemicals, by a public completely unaware of the existence of the secret lab in their own neighborhood.

That is what Prohibition has created, a world far more dangerous than a regulated one. An utter lack of control, and a guarantee that the resulting high black market prices will insure an endless stream of criminals willing to make a fast buck in the illegal drug market.


Prohibition has promised to eliminate a problem, and in reality it has caused an explosion of the problem. We have almost 100 years of prohibitionist history to demonstrate that the policy is a total failure, and results in a black market with a high degree of secondary crime.

I don't know about you, but I would rather that methamphetamine was legally available to those who wanted it, than have my children be unknowingly exposed to toxic chemicals from a hidden meth lab somewhere.
 
Well, if you go back to the begginning of this thread you can see how i felt on the issue. But now i completely agree with invalidusername on every point he made.

ALL DRUGS SHOULD BE LEGALIZED. wait, i'm sorry. I meant.. ALL DRUGS NEED TO BE LEGALIZED. with the exception of of 5-meo-amt, cause it just sucks ass. lol.

The drug war is a very tricky issue. Or shall i say, the drug control problem. Legalizing drugs removes 90% if not more of the problems assotiated with them, but then think about how many potential fucking psycho nutcases would have cheap, readily available, endless access to any drug they wanted.


90% What the fuck? Lets not forget that cigs and alcohol are 2 very legal yet highly abused substances. I do agree that legalization has its definite benefits but without education, harm minimization and proper legislation the potential for abuse is still retardedly high.
