    BBC News – Alcohol 'more harmful than heroin' says Prof David Nutt

    I think its good this kind of information is getting into the mainstream media. Wont make a blind bit of difference mind.

    Yh personaly i dont think Alcohol is worse than smack or crack. But i like the fact that people are starting to see that illegal drugs arent as bad as people make out, if they are treated with respect. And that harm reducution might be the way forward and not making things illegal.

    depends what you mean by worse and for whom I suppose. I think his assessments certainly meet my common sense expectations (but then it is a subject I used to take an interest in). Its always nice to see a quantifiable approach to a social problem.

    Yes Alcohol is a lot more damaging but Heroin is known as the Devil drug due to extremely quick addictions and awful withdrawals which make you do stupid things.

    ‎*fingers in ears* la la la la la we can’t hear you, our priorities are clear

    it all makes perfect scientific sense but I fear that goverments if they don’t ignore it (after all Professor Nutt was fired and villified) will take a worst case approach, cherry pick what they want from this report and simply clamp down on the entire night time economy – they aren’t going to budge on the drugs issue but might well just increase clampdowns on alcohol.

    As an example, the new real ale pub what was supposed to open in town is delayed and they have been forced to adopt challenge 25 FFS… there was nothing wrong with challenge 21 and the risk from underage drinkers is exaggerated, its older excessive drinkers (even in their 30s and 40s) who cause the most shit with violence, particularly domestics as well as fucking up their own health..

    Pure heroin does pretty much 0 damage to your body taken at the right dose … the only thing that makes people die from it are OD’s, dodgy gear, colapsing viegns, unclean works and shoddy injecting etc. oh and AIDs as well if you’re sharing needles.

    afaik if you were to be given heroin professionly by a nurse every day for you whole life you’d have no heath problems in old age due to it. (this is why alot of opiates/opoids are used in medical situations all the time as they don’t damage the body)

    alchahol will rot you inside out!

    alltho it’s the addiction and lack of care for your self when addicted to smack that fucks people up .. i’ve seen exactly the same thing happen to people who drink (encluding me at one point in my life)

    marajuana is more harmfull then Methedrone or GHB according to that!

    Haven’t you seen Reefer Madness? ARE YOU CRAZY

    alcohol is the silent killer, its so engraved in society when some one dies from alcoholism people seem so shocked, well what do you expect? no no, booze is fine, it only kills your brain, your liver and your stomach as well as your making you rather out of pocket. I’m not defending heroin use, but the fact remains that like daft said, pure heroin; so opium, so fuck’al damage, (unless you o.d. then that’s a fair bit of damage cause you got dead) but because of Britons unfathomable lust for alcohol, and the governments greed, drugs that are safe and clean for the human body are a no no because they aren’t taxable.
    thats how i see it myself, i maybe wrong (more than likely wrong)
