If anywhere was going to do a particularly stupid thing, I would first guess San Francisco with Denver only in second place. So the
recent news about Denver legalizing magic mushrooms was a small surprize.
Let's consider the reasons FOR doing this stupid act:
1) Work-shy stoners can smoke the magic mushroom and get high
2) Kids who purchase from dealers won't be forced to switch to hard drugs like marijuana when their supply is unavailable
Now let's look at the reasons AGAINST:
1) IT'S DRUGS!
2) IT'S ILLEGAL!
3) YOU WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE IN PRISON!
4) YOU WILL GET AIDS FROM ALL THE NEEDLES!
5) IT'S A WAR! GET REAL! WAKE UP!!1
As you can see, the desperate addicts in Denver did not even use reason when taking this stupid vote. I think it's time we had a sensible debate about whether we double down on the War on Drugs or we triple down. People in Denver are about to consume vast quantities of mentally altering chemicals, they won't be able to stop themselves and then they won't be able to think straight. They will just consume drugs and destroy society like every illegal drug previously.
Humans are WEAK and need to be stopped from doing things they enjoy that are bad. Drugs are BAD, except ones that are patented. A CLUE people: if you can grow it yourself, it's illegal. Don't touch drugs. Don't let others touch them. Shoot people who try to touch them. That's how we can save lives.
