Legality of hemlock
    #22984894 - 03/08/16 07:11 AM (7 years, 10 months ago)

Just sittin here doin some thinking and i got to wondering, mushrooms and marijuana for example are illegal because of their potential for abuse AND no medical use (which obviously they do have medical use)
.
So in short they are illegal because they can cause harm to oneself. I mean the whole reason any drug is illegal at the core of things is because they are harmful right? I mean thats the basic theory. Now let's just take a look at hemlock. IMMENSELY more harmful than marijuana or shrooms, (in that in can just kill you right there) AND YET oddly enough the cultivation, possession, AND distribution of hemlock is completely legal and unregulated. I'm probably just an idiot so feel free to knock me off my pedestal and teach me something. Im just very curious as to how substances are supposed to be illegalized for their potential to caise harm and yet here is a poisonous plant that can kill very quickly and has NO regulation whatsoever. Im not saying hemlock is a problem or anything i never hear about it, this is reallu more a philosophical thought on legality. I would love to get some responses thank you. :smile: (p. S. If this is in the wrong forum please let me know. )

"Harm" is NOT the sole factor upon which drugs are scheduled. Generally, the reinforcing (euphoric) effects and medical utlity are the primary factors considered. There are many harmful/toxic substances that aren't scheduled.
