Drugs is still a problem even though its by law illegal.
There are are different types of drugs theres hypnotics, stimulants inebriants and of course theres Hallucingens!
In the funny clips shown there's the evidence of the effects of the drugs in the experiment clip by Dr Humphrey Osmond; which showed a man under the effects as he said 'had experiences but out of film' which is kind of true as as when under the influence you are more likely to do something that you may not remember.
I was also interesting how it was in used in social when it was just being discovered by authors such as Aldous Hoxley and Timothy Leary. the pictures that were seen also shows how life in the 60's were just as carefree when drugs were in the streets not illegal like now.
There was also clips that shows how the drugs were used in war, i was surprised to realise how they were used in the british army and to 'spray on army' in otherwords to gain an upper hand and have control over others;
Is it true that the govermant still have control over the public by having laws such as the restriction of drugs ?
Headlines in recent years like 'Britain on verge of ecstasy epidemic:http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-197808/Britain-verge-ecstasy-epidemic.htmland 'Ecstasy pill puts party girl in coma': http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/ november/13/newsid_2516000/ 2516593.stm may show how drugs can mentally and physically damage peoples lives so is this the reason why we need restrictions such as the law to protect others from the consequences of drugs as the drugs alter peoples minds.
BUT! isn't there other things that can have the same effects? like alcohol? glue solvent abuse?
Wouldn't it be better to let people decide for themselves?
Wouldn't be better if it wasn't ilegal but people would see the effects of the drugs from others but still learn from seeing the effects from other peoples addictions?
I agree with you drugs are still a big problem in this country even though they are illegal. I think that that it is a good idea to show people the effects of drugs but on the other hand there are still going to be some people who just don’t care, I do not think people understand the dangers of taking drugs. Even with the law some people still don’t care. I do disagree with you when you said t would be better if drugs were illegal and people could see that effects of the drugs from others. Drugs are illegal for a reason and this reason is because they are dangers and if they were legal then people would think it is ok to take them. The people that take drugs know that it is wrong may be that’s why they do it who knows there are many reasons why people take drugs
