Drugs are the devil

I'm not sure that I even believe in things like an actual devil. But what most people think of the devil as, that's what I think drugs are. On New Year's Eve I watched the "Intervention" marathon on A&E and I've watched the show off and on in the past. Right now I'm watching "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew" and my god, what that shit has done to Jeff Conaway. When I was in junior high they used to make us watch this anti-drug movie called Dead is Dead. I grew up on Miami Vice. So I'm having a difficult time understanding why drugs are still there.

Everyone knows that they're bad right? I mean when I used to hear stories about rock stars who ODed back in the day I thought it was because people didn't know how bad that stuff was. But now we all know. And what gets me is sometimes educated brainy people think that we should legalize this stuff. I don't know what they are thinking. Supposedly they think the drug problem is about the violence surrounding it. Yeah, no kidding, that sucks. But this stuff is soul-destroying. It is like a bomb or a weapon that attacks the people who use it. No one would ever say that we should make lead paint legal for kids to chew on. This stuff is poison too. It shouldn't be a choice. These are the same people (most people) who don't seem to understand that alcohol is one of the worst things in this world. Think of everything that that shit does to people and it's commonly thought of as something fun. Still. After all the abused wives and children, cirrhosis, drunk driving deaths. Oh but it's just a party time beverage. Could you imagine if cocaine was that legal? Heroine? This world is spinning out of control so fast and people wonder why. They know about all the ills in the world like something as big as the drug issue and they still wonder why. What's wrong with people? Everyone should hate drugs period. Hate it in the morning. Hate it when you go to bed. Hate it. It's ruining the whole world.

And if you think I'm not talking about the pills that doctor gives you too, you're very wrong.
