Ray Lewis’s Son passes away at 28

As for classes of narcotics, its totally subjective and makes no sense… there isn’t any scientific method to rating them… weed is class 1… so is heroin. weed is only slightly less prevalent than coffee in this country… it is about as harmless as sugar…

Fun fact… rated on addictive properties, regular cocaine falls beneath both Cigarettes and Alcohol…
And for the record, look up cdc deaths, and alcohol related deaths per year is something like 140,000… tobacco deaths are around a HALF A MILLION people… per year…
So cocaine is less lethal, less addictive, but illegal because of….um?

And the biggest danger remains
1. Illegal production creating tainted products
And
2. Dumbasses cooking it into crack…

I see no logic behind keeping it illegal…

Again, of you legalize it, the vast amount of the illegal production goes away… there just wouldn’t be a market for it. Legal products wouldn’t be laced with anything.

Its a weird wormhole to go down… its like with weed… states have legalized it but the feds wont… it isn’t even because of any safety reasons… its UN treaties that forbid them from doing so… UN treaties that were pushed by the countries that make the most money from drugs being illegal everywhere and them turning a blind eye to the cartels in their land making and selling them abroad…

Its why Selling drugs is illegal almost everywhere but possessing or using them has been decriminalized in a ton of countries now…

Its a money thing… like everything

Again...they aren't going to legalize cocaine. Not going to happen in our lifetimes.

Alcohol and tobacco are legal and have been in widespread use for generations, so it naturally follows that they would have more related deaths than an illegal substance that has never been lawful to use. Think about it.

His point was that cocaine is probably less toxic to most folks than alcohol.

Nicotine is not carcinogenic, but the plant material around it is ( nonsmoking nicotine, while still addictive, is far safer).

Cannabis doesn't kill people, but the narco-traffickers and bad guys around it do.

Cocaine is definitely less toxic to me, because I've never used it. Like millions upon millions of other people.

That's my point.

Can't let this cocaine banter go to waste. Somewhere back between 87-90 a first lieutenant frowned upon our track vehicle named Sweet Leaf. It was painted on the front and he insisted that it be removed. I was happy to oblige as I replaced it with SnowBlind. Apparently he had never listened to Black Sabbath.
