Well, actually, that is exactly what I thought. In fact I thought it must be very special indeed as only adults were legally allowed to drink it. ! |

What I am saying is that people drink alcoholic drinks for the alcohol. Wether they're getting a slight buzz, a bit tipsy or off their face is their personal preference, but they are choosing to inject alcohol because of its effects. My point was that alcohol-free beers are poor sellers because the option of having the taste without the drug is not a popular one. Well, we'll just have to agree to disagree on that one. I drink because I like the taste and because I am thirsty - I do not drink for any after effect. Believe it or not. Obviously I'm poorly place to argue the whys and wherefores of your personal alcohol consumption, but I would say it's irrelevant to the argument, because you can not generalise from self and apply your drinking principles to the whole of society. Alcohol my well have a history of being a social drug and of encouraging connoisseurs, but that is unrelated to the physiological effects of the drug and its long-term health implications. Basically your arguement boils down to; "Alcohol should be legal because lots of people like it, but cannabis shouldn't be legal because I don't like it and I don't like the idea of people taking a drug purely for its narcotic effect". That's a pretty poor argument, really. |
it?

I still maintain, however, that there is a dramatic difference between having a glass of wine with a meal because you enjoy the taste of the wine, and using cannabis, not because you like the taste, but purely because you want to get high. You mention the word "high" quite a few times - would you care to give your definition of what high is ? . |
the form of intoxication derived from drug use rather than alcohol use (yes
I know that will argue that alcohol is a drug as well). I have never taken a
controlled drug in my life and so have no personal idea of how to describe
the effect (and yes, I realise you will state now state that I am poorly
placed to criticise something that I have not tried - but I don't need to
practise paedophilia to know that it is wrong).

Same as sensible people do when visiting a nice country pub. Can you equate cannabis taker with 'sensible'? Compared to who ? . |

deliberately flouts the law. There is still the question, although you
appear to be trying to get around it, that people can drink alcoholic drinks
in moderation purely and solely and for no other reason than because they
enjoy the taste of it. For many such moderate drinkers, the intoxicating
effects are unwanted and unwelcome. I have already stated that if
alcohol-free beer and wine were available, and tasted exactly the same as
the 'proper' product, I would buy it. Would you buy and use cannabis if its
narcotic effect was removed? I think not.
