Is it time to legalize LSD?

Marijuana was never legal. LSD was not only legal, but also used by the government as a "truth serum" back in the 50's. They realized it was too much fun and put a ban on it.

 

Marijuana was legal until 1937. I'm not sure when it was first introduced over here, but it used to be available in grocery stores and in bars.

 

I'm not sure if it should be legal. I can easily enough get it and I'm not sure if a lot of people out there are ready for it. Now you have to search first, and during your search you can learn a lot about it so that you're well prepared when you finally get your LSD. Thats quite a good thing in a way. On the other hand.. I'd say legalize all drugs, because I'm for choise what you put in your body; no one should decide that for you.

 

if lsd were legal the suicide rate would shoot threw the roof. to many little kids wold be all for it and most ppl arn't even ready for it. bad idea. could you just see a world leader on lsd? pariniod then sets off a bomb omg... would make for an intresting cartoon show.

 

All drugs should be legal.

 

No Way I would rather see Crack and Herion legal then LSD its just way to dangerous ! To many young kids who are not ready for a trip would be taking the shit and fliping out alot more then it happens now.People with mental disorders would have easier Access to the drug. I don't know about you But I would not want Schizophrenic or a Sociopath walking around the streets of my town high on LSD No fucking WAY !!! Astaff is right the suicide rate would skyrocket and I bet the murder rate would also. I never want to see the day when a 12 year old kid is waiting outside a corner store like they do now for Cigs and Beer asking people over 18 or 21 to buy them a 5 strip of Hits ! Society and mankind would be alot worse off then it is now if LSD was legal and anyone could get there hands on it.

 

Well, I can't get LSD here anymore, so I voted yes! I miss it very much.

 

If you legalize LSD the first people to run out to get some would inevitably be the biggest idiots in the psychedelic drug scene. The kind of people who don't know a crystal from a microdot and are unhinged to begin with. I've seen idiots like that get a whole lot raided on like 5 hits. Then the first people to distribute it on a large scale would be too greedy to care if there are maniacs roaming the streets with drug induced homicidal tendencies. It would be an open invite for people like Charles Manson to rape young minds. LSD is way too out there. We'd be better off legalizing Heroin.

 

I belive the government has no busness to take that stuff away in the first place. I don't see any reason that is valid as a reason to illegalize drugs in general, in fact death rates related to drugs have sky rocketed sence it was made illegal....

Have you done LSD and do you understand its effects?

Also Marijuana is illigal... and is 100x easier to get when your in highschool than alcohol.

I think it should be legalized but not just instantly legal with no restrictions. I believe it should be first legalized for medical purposes including cluster headaches, alcoholism, drug addiction, criminal rehabilitation, and what ever else they can find it to be useful before. Some of the things LSD can do in a therapeutic setting is amazing.

After that it should be be opened up for religious reasons. Have it so it is only legal to do LSD in certain places with a licensed guide who is experienced. Atleast for your first couple trips. I wouldent have to be turned into a religious session but I think LSD is similar to a religious experience even for those who do not believe in God. I think this is similar to what Albert Hoffman in visions.

Am I just crazy? I am afraid straight out legalization would cause LSD to get a negative view due to people being stupid as they are and doing stupid things on LSD (and even though people do way more stupid things on Alcohol it would make headline news anyway).

 

I would like for the punishment to be lessend

 

Acid makes me crazy sometimes))

 

As a fellow Libertarian I totally agree drugs, ALL drugs, need to be legalized. If people chose to use, its their choice.

 

Kucinich will decriminalize marijuana.

 

definatly legalize it, but don't give it freely away to the public. it should be just like back in the 1960s at school campuses where it was availalbe for research reasons.

 

thats one of the reasons I'm voting for him. Ron Paul isn't everything everyone thinks... he's not the best candidate in my opinion, Gravel and Kucinich are.

 

Yeah good idea the last thing I want is 13 year old kids and people with bad mental problems walking into my local corner store buying a 5 strip of hits !!!!!! please the shit should be illegal and will always stay that way. I would rather see Herion/Crack and Meth legal before LSD !!!!!!

 

so because there are some irresponsible people out there we should ruin it for everybody???
Besides, mental problems do not neccesarily make someone "crazy". Obviously you still believe in that old stereotype.

 

So you think that little kids should be able to weight outside a 7-11 like they do now for Beer and Cigs and be able to have someone buy they a 10 strip of hits. Or a psychopath or a violent nut who hears voices who just got out of the local mental hospital should be able to walk into Mr.Joes mini mart and buy some hits. No fucking Way. Hey I love LSd but I have seen alot of fucked up things happen to people on it. I had to stop stupid ass people who were triping bad more then a few times in my day from doing dangerous things to themselfs and others. I saw so many people freak out who should of not been taking the shit in the first place. Some people are just not made for psychedelic drugs bottom line.I have seen that more then enuff in my days of using them.If it were legal we would see that so much more it would be a common thing.People who should not be eating Cid would be freaking the fuck out so much more in society. Little kids would think its like pot or beer and use it all the time.The last bad trip I saw totaly sumed this up to me that all psychedelic drugs should never be made legal. It was about 5 years ago.This kid who I knew a little bit took LSD his first time And I knew before hand this kid should of not taken it. I could just tell but the way he was and acted before the trip. I was so mad at myself becasue I knew right off bat this was going to suck and I should of not put myself in a situation like this I was always good about stuff like that when tripping. Well as soon as it hit him we all would be in for a ride and little did any one know a dangerous one.That night was total hell, At first I thought it would be a normal bad trip. But it ws not He was freaking the fuck out for hours and not like most people do on a bad trip ,I am use to that from all my years of tripping but this kid scared the shit out of me. He was talking about killing people. how he hated evey one. and other morbid stuff. He started to freak more and more buy the second. I will never forget when he took his camping knife out and started to cut himself deep on his arms and legs it was so messed up. We tried to stop him and he held the knife on us. We tried to talk to him and help him and tell him it was only a drug but he was making no sence at and just getting worse. I will never forget that evil face he had looking at the fire like we wanted to kill every one there after he sat down. I knew right them he was a danger to himself and to others.I wanted bum rush the kid with evey one and tie him up until the trip wore off after that shit happend but every one said no I called over and told. So I knew enuff to leave I was gone so fast with my friends and went to another camp sight far away becasue I knew this was only going to get alot worse and could get real ugly with him when that LSD hit him full forse and he started to peak.Looking back now I should of called the cops I was real stupid not to.If someone got hurt real bad I would of felt so dam guilty. Anyways it did get alot worse after we left with the kids who stayed behind with him.I guess from what I heard he was buring the shit out of his hand in the fire and throwing evey ones stuff in it also and then he trid setting the woods on fire.I guess that was enuff they all tried stoping him and he got real violent a few people got hurt. He stabbed one kid 2 times in the leg not that bad but it took about 40 stitches to close the 2 wounds, another one got hit in the head with a big ass rock,and he tried throwing another one in the fire. He ran away from the camp sight and later that night the cops found him in town when he broke into someones house he thought was his grandmothers he said to the police but it was not. He attacked the cops who were first on the scene with a baseball bat from the house he was in they had to use a stun gun and mace to get him under control. He is so lucky he did not get shot that night ? The cops said he was cut so bad from walking threw the plate glass window to brake into the house and from cutting himself even more and deeper after he left the camp sight. anyways he went to a mental hospital for 90 days and did a year in county jail for that shit. It just shows you what can happen when LSD is taken but the wrong person who is not ment to trip or falls into the rong hands. If it were legal we would see a hell of alot more of that shit.Crazy ass shit someone could of got hurt real bad that night or even died becasue of his bad trip. I slaways think what would of happend if the family was home of the house he broke into thank GOD for that !!!!!!!!!! Man I love LSD so dam much but I jsut don't think it should ever be legal its to dangerous.

 

I think it should be legal because having it illegal is just punishing those who have self control.

I mean I've never seen cid in my town, nor have I known anyone who has. I can handle my pyschedelics, boomers, lsa, I would just like to try the next level you know?
