Cocaine and heroin are not chemical based drugs... rolleyes

I definitely agree marijuana should be legal. I'm also on the bubble that all drugs should be legal. These issues would then tend to sort themselves. If somebody decides to buy a legal drug and kill themselves knowing full well that is possible, then they made that decision. It would also reel in drug companies from pushing opiates as non-addictive drugs, because easy access would make them less expensive and remove the profit motive.


I don't know how heroin is cooked up, but you should've heard the story a captain told us about how coca leaves are put in some kind of trough, doused in kerosene (a chemical) and stomped by native Cambodians like grapes.

No thanks.

Just looked up heroin, the main ingredient may be natural, but the extra stuff added to it is just as chemical as anything else.

Again, no thanks. rolleyes

I guess you could call the extraction a chemical process but the drug is naturally occuring. Same as MDMA, LSD, PSILOCYBIN, and others.

Drugs like PCP and METH are synthetic and chemical in nature I think though. So I can see why any drug requiring unrelated chemicals to make could be considered 'chemical drugs'.
