Check this out and Please in your Opinion Express yourself on Why do Gov make Alcohol Legal and Ecstasy Illegal?

I Personally would prefer Alcohol to be Illegal and Put Ecstasy Legal, because I never Heard of Ecstasy causing Car Accidents, But I heard many times that Alcohol kills, and Alcohol is much worse than Ecstasy do to physical dependency.

Why do Gov make Alcohol Legal and Ecstasy Illegal?

I think that in Norther Europe, where i live, there has been a culture of alcohol consumption for many hundreds, possibly thousands of years. No government in there right mind would ban alcohol. It part of our heritage!

However this does not mean the government wouldnt like to ban alcohol, its just so deeply rooted in our culture!Ecstacy however,a relatively new drug, with unknown dangers was quickly banned before it gained mass popularity, on par with alcohol. The government didnt want another dangerous drug on the market for people to mess themselves over with, and be less productive citizens. There concern was quite understandable.
 
it's quite simple.

alcohol use is 3k years old, and it has ever been legal, coz even if it's dangerous for liver and can lead to car accidents, it's a social glue, it helps people socialize without stoning you too much.

xtc btw is an harmful substance, it can lead to schyzophrenia even if you take it once [only if you are disturbed by yourself, obviously].

I agree with what you are saying. Though you should re-think the car accident statement. I have driven one time on E- one time only. It was the hardest thing I've ever done. I guarantee if it iwere a legal drug, there would be car accidents attributed to its use.
 
I think its interesting to note that Ritalin (something my 10yr old son is prescribed) comes in higher (more harmfu) than E. Of course I realize they are talking about illicit use of Ritalin. But still- it is a drug prescribed to thousands of young children, and yet is considered more dangerous than E :\

OK... More "harmful" is how they put it on the list. So let me restate it

psychedellic drugs were used before stupor-inducing poisons such as alcohol in many societies, worldwide.

Take your 10-year old son off Ritalin. Keeping him on that is just irresponsible. Ritalin is basically Amphetamine (speed) its rotting his brain.

The way your son takes it (small doses every day) is much more dangerous than 'illicit' use.

Don't tell me what is right to do with my son! You have no idea how much thought went into the decision, how many years of testing before accepting that he really was ADD (especially since I have 2 older sons, and the 10yr old has a twin, and none of the others are ADD).

Your 2nd statement shows your true ignorance of the use of Ritalin. Otherwise you would know that Ritalin used by non-ADD individuals it acts on their body similar to meth. Whereas Ritalin used with ADD individuals is more of a calming and mind clearing substance.

Self-righteous jerks that fall for the media's "oh Ritalin is so over-prescribed" BS... Yes, there are children that are prescribed it that shouldn't be. But I made damn sure my son was not one of those before I allowed any prescription. And we tried other medicines before Ritalin, and all the other medicines made him sick or gave him headaches. Ritalin was the last resort, but it was the one thing that allowed him to have some concentration level. How would you like to be a twin, and your twin was getting straight A's while you struggled to focus on any little task???

Yeah... I get pissy about this topic, because I have had to defend this dozens of times from people that don't know... People that truly have no idea always wanting to tell me how wrong this is because the media says so. :X

Now tell me what makes you the authority on Ritalin use???

Ritalin is a neurotoxin and daily use is in fact damaging your childs brain. Maybe he does need it, not my place to say.

The article results were based off of SURVEYS of doctors. Meaning there could be many factors that could've skewed the results of this "study" if you can even call it that. This was not even a statistical result. All of these rankings were based off of personal opinions, some of which aren't even medical professionals. But if ecstacy was legal, I gaurantee you, it'd be a bigger problem than alcohol.
 
I'd rather have a kid that had trouble focusing than one that would be brain dead in a few years.

Giving a child a neurotoxic drug like Methylphendate at such an early age is idiotic, even if it helps him spend a few extra hours on homework.

He's ten.
 
I agree with you motorcycle, don't let other provoke you, I believe that once your son will get older will grow out of ADD, and then you can stop usinf Ritalin, for most cases I believe that to be true.

Extra hours on homework- you really think that's what its about don't you? No, its so he can actually LEARN in SCHOOL. So he doesn't end up some loser HS dropout! Homework- sheesh, he's in 5th grade. He barely knows what homework is, because so little of the school work is done at home.

I repeat again- you apparently have ZERO experience with ADD (and lets keep in mind that ADD is not the same as ADHD- there is some difference). I seriously doubt that his doctor- the same doctor that delivered him from the womb and has been there thru every sniff and snivel would put this child at risk by prescribing a medication that was going to make him brain dead in a few years. JESUS!!! Do you believe the media crap that E puts holes in your brain??? Probably not... And yet you will let the media spoonfeed you lies about Ritalin. 8)

Well not exactly, Alcohol induces violence and foul behavior within People, and Ecstasy Induces Love, self acceptance, and I think everyone would benefit from the use of ecstasy, specially not having to pay alot of money and not having no more bunk or Meth Pills, everything would be pure MDMA, and I'm sure when was MDMA still legal, did not have any reports back then that ecstasy had killed anyone with car accidents, or just any accident.

Show me your proof of this "obvious truth". as stated above: I seriously doubt that his doctor- the same doctor that delivered him from the womb and has been there thru every sniff and snivel would put this child at risk by prescribing a medication that was going to make him brain dead in a few years.



Yeah... Ol' BL is full of Ritalin experts 8)
