A little something about drugs...(a sort of part 2 of a different thread)

I do not condone the use of ANY drugs, and this thread is not intended to be a debate about who does what drug or why, or whether or not you should or shouldn't do drugs...

BUT it really really drives me crazy when people bash others for doing "recreational drugs" and turn around, go out, and drink alcohol till they puke, but say that alcohol is not a drug...

hypocrites? yes or no.


(a little cut and paste)

Every year, more money is spent promoting the use of alcohol than any other product. Perhaps through its elaborate and creative marketing, the most basic, yet important fact about alcohol is often overlooked — alcohol is a drug — the most commonly used and widely abused psychoactive drug in the world.

One concept that many people find difficult to accept is that alcoholism and alcohol problems are a disease. Research has shown that alcohol interacts with the body’s systems in predictable ways to lead to physiological addiction.

Alcoholism is a disease — a chronic, progressive, fatal disease if not treated.
 
.....and so is caffeine...:) Caffeine has been shown to induce "rage" in rats at dosages that are normal consumption among humans.....don't hear anyone going on about caffeine rage and murders. :)
 
I don't think they're hypocrites

1) Alcohol is legal, other drugs are illegal...this is for a lot of reasons but one of the main ones being:

2) Alcohol used in moderation is fine, and you only get the full blown effects if you have too much. When you use a drug, you get high no matter how much you use. Therefore, it's like getting trashed after only one drink.
