So far I could not find anything wrong with the point of view presented on any of the pages I have come across on on the issues. I had expected to see some ignorant conservative a-holes talking down on Portugal, however I suppose they don't stick their heads in the fire when they know they're all out of water. However, I am extremely disappointed to see a bunch of pot heads talking down on the real drugs out there, while at the same time pushing their dirty weed down the country's throats. Seriously, either you take the prohibitionist stance or you take the abolitionist stance. Don't you understand that the powers that be will never separate your precious tea from the other Schedule I's? And please, don't give me that crap about "marijuana is natural, heroin is evil." Heroin is morphine with two fatty acids, a process simple to x degree; extracting morphine from from opium is easier yet; and what is opium? It's the plant resin of the papaver somniferum - opium poppy in the vernacular. Same goes for the coca plant. One can even add LSD to the list - as it is synthesized from LSA, which comes from the moss ergot or the morning glory seeds (in much lower concentration). However, I think the world would be better without acid, and yes, I have taken it - over a thousand times. Hell, even MDMA comes from saffrole - sasafras root. Of course, I too can enjoy a stick of good headies, but only once I got some good ole' H in my blood - or at least a few beers and some methadone or morphine. And before you start your usual teahead tirades about the worth to society, just let me tell you that yes, I am a heroin addict, coke head, etc. with an eight year status. When I take my drugs I prefer a syringe to a glass bong - even if I take LSD or MDMA (The reason people IV drugs (heroin, cocaine, MDMA, etc.) is the same reason doctors use syringes to administer an IV injection - it is the cleanest, safest, most efficient way to introduce a substance to the body.) However,my extracurricular activities did not keep me from graduating college and going on to work on my MBA. I am fluent in three languages - English, Spanish and Russian, and am currently conducting a survey of Russian literature from 1980 to the present day, to examine its influence upon the political climate leading up to the break down of USSR, and the influence of said break down on the literary world. Yes, I read Russian in the original. I even translate the works that I find have not been translated into English. I do all this in time free from work and school. So which one of us contributes more to the society? I came across this page while researching Portuguese drug decriminalization.

Just the possession of a small amount of "light" drugs like marijuana is not criminalized. If you have in your possession more than the legal small amount you're considered a dealer and that's a crime. It’s not so simple.
