Class A drugs include: Heroin, Cocaine, Magic Mushrooms, MDMA, LSD to list a few

Compare the severity of some of the effects of those with the effects of alcohol

and you might understand why it should be a class A drug

just read back into the thread about the drug shit

most of the disagreement here comes from a misunderstanding of what addiction is and how it happens

people who slam down a whole lot of coke and take drugs doesn't mean your an authority on psychology

your personal experiences mean NOTHING

also the people that haven't done drugs taking a big anti-drug position are being a bit retarded

chus i'd like 2 talk 2 u in ts pls

You can be addicted to anything, some of my friends have a crippling addition/dependency on weed and its really sad.

I know a guy who sold his PS4 he got for christmas on boxing day to buy an ounce, that shit is fucked up. (A bit of a 1st world comparison but I may add hes sold everything of worth he has ever owned to buy weed)

Those personal experiences I have with people do mean something - I still think it should be decriminalised/legalised though. Taxation into rehabilitation over whatever fucked  up war on drugs the 21st century has ended up with. 

Also Chus is clearly extremely naive - Why waste your time with that shit.

also cryptocurrency is a terrible thing

I was shooting heroin and reading “The Fountainhead” in the front seat of my privately owned police cruiser when a call came in. I put a quarter in the radio to activate it. It was the chief.

“Bad news, detective. We got a situation.”

“What? Is the mayor trying to ban trans fats again?”

“Worse. Somebody just stole four hundred and forty-seven million dollars’ worth of bitcoins.”

The heroin needle practically fell out of my arm. “What kind of monster would do something like that? Bitcoins are the ultimate currency: virtual, anonymous, stateless. They represent true economic freedom, not subject to arbitrary manipulation by any government. Do we have any leads?”

“Not yet. But mark my words: we’re going to figure out who did this and we’re going to take them down … provided someone pays us a fair market rate to do so.”

“Easy, chief,” I said. “Any rate the market offers is, by definition, fair.”

He laughed. “That’s why you’re the best I got, Lisowski. Now you get out there and find those bitcoins.”

“Don’t worry,” I said. “I’m on it.”

I put a quarter in the siren. Ten minutes later, I was on the scene. It was a normal office building, strangled on all sides by public sidewalks. I hopped over them and went inside.

“Home Depot™ Presents the Police!®” I said, flashing my badge and my gun and a small picture of Ron Paul. “Nobody move unless you want to!” They didn’t.

“Now, which one of you punks is going to pay me to investigate this crime?” No one spoke up.

“Come on,” I said. “Don’t you all understand that the protection of private property is the foundation of all personal liberty?”

It didn’t seem like they did.

“Seriously, guys. Without a strong economic motivator, I’m just going to stand here and not solve this case. Cash is fine, but I prefer being paid in gold bullion or autographed Penn Jillette posters.”

Nothing. These people were stonewalling me. It almost seemed like they didn’t care that a fortune in computer money invented to buy drugs was missing.

I figured I could wait them out. I lit several cigarettes indoors. A pregnant lady coughed, and I told her that secondhand smoke is a myth. Just then, a man in glasses made a break for it.

“Subway™ Eat Fresh and Freeze, Scumbag!®” I yelled.

Too late. He was already out the front door. I went after him.

“Stop right there!” I yelled as I ran. He was faster than me because I always try to avoid stepping on public sidewalks. Our country needs a private-sidewalk voucher system, but, thanks to the incestuous interplay between our corrupt federal government and the public-sidewalk lobby, it will never happen.

I was losing him. “Listen, I’ll pay you to stop!” I yelled. “What would you consider an appropriate price point for stopping? I’ll offer you a thirteenth of an ounce of gold and a gently worn ‘Bob Barr ‘08’ extra-large long-sleeved men’s T-shirt!”

He turned. In his hand was a revolver that the Constitution said he had every right to own. He fired at me and missed. I pulled my own gun, put a quarter in it, and fired back. The bullet lodged in a U.S.P.S. mailbox less than a foot from his head. I shot the mailbox again, on purpose.

“All right, all right!” the man yelled, throwing down his weapon. “I give up, cop! I confess: I took the bitcoins.”

“Why’d you do it?” I asked, as I slapped a pair of Oikos™ Greek Yogurt Presents Handcuffs® on the guy.

“Because I was afraid.”

“Afraid?”

“Afraid of an economic future free from the pernicious meddling of central bankers,” he said. “I’m a central banker.”

I wanted to coldcock the guy. Years ago, a central banker killed my partner. Instead, I shook my head.

“Let this be a message to all your central-banker friends out on the street,” I said. “No matter how many bitcoins you steal, you’ll never take away the dream of an open society based on the principles of personal and economic freedom.”

He nodded, because he knew I was right. Then he swiped his credit card to pay me for arresting him.

@Chris Lord TLDR but I agree about cryptos being a terrible thing.

I saw a statistic over a month ago that crypto-mining had an annual power consumption greater than that of Ireland's and I imagine it has grown since then. What does any of this achieve? Nothing. 

In a world where we're constantly talking about climate change and global warming, I can't believe the electricity waste involved in crypto-mining has gone relatively unnoticed.

Not every crypto is mineable, most of them are premined.

The fact that you just straight up say crypto is a terrible thing shows how ignorant & uneducated about the topic you are.

Nothing in his statement suggested that all crypto can be mined, only that the aggregate of crypto which has been mined has been greater than the power consumption of a first world country, which is pretty crazy.
