What's The Difference Between Legal and Illegal Drugs?
So what's the real difference between legal drugs and illegal drugs? Some people think that only illegal drugs are habit-forming. Yet legal drugs can be just as addictive as illegal drugs. Just ask anyone who has tried to quit smoking, go off caffeine, or kick to Oxycontin habit.
So is there some other difference between illegal drugs and legal drugs? People argue that legal drugs are safe.
They're FDA-approved! And yet they fail to recognize that prescription drugs kill more Americans each year than all the crack, meth, and heroin deaths combined.
Okay, then, what about the argument that illegal drugs have no medicinal purpose, and legal drugs do have a medicinal purpose. What about that? Wrong again. Medical marijuana is a medically proven treatment for a variety of conditions, yet marijuana still remains illegal. Even MDMA (now called "Ecstasy" on the street) was long considered an effective "experiential drug" that helped severely traumatized adult patients overcome past pains through improved clarity. At the same time, tobacco smoke has no medical purpose whatsoever, yet cigarettes remain perfectly legal.
No, the real difference between these two classes of drugs is not their medical merit, nor their safety. The real difference is something far more sinister.
It gets right down to answering the question of why DEA agents will raid medical marijuana clinics, yet stand by doing nothing while Americans smoke themselves to death on tobacco.
Want to know the real answer? I very much doubt you do. Because, like most Americans, you won't believe it. You've been blinded to the obvious truth for your whole life, manipulated by the media, and brainwashed by advertising that has turned you into a statistically-validated consumer. You'll think, no, this couldn't possibly be true. The world isn't that unjust, you think. But you're wrong. (Take the free Gullibility Factor test to find out if you're really a mind slave or not...)
Here's the raw, blunt truth about the war on drugs. Drugs are declared legal or illegal based primarily on who benefits from their manufacture, distribution and sale.

so, what do you think?
By the way . . . I overhead "cat . . and dog" today in a conversation, and my mind went back to college days when I would it would hit 4:20 in the afternoon, and I was watching CatDog.
fun times . . . fun times indeed.

Oh look... somebody looked up the lyrics. I ain't into correct grammar. I just remember how it was sung.
And don't discount the fact that the all mighty FDA has their own agenda and they surely wouldn't say something is okay when it isn't. Would they?!?
exactly! haha
