Many governments have laws that ban the sale and use of hard drugs such as heroin and cocaine, yet they allow people to buy drugs such as tobacco and alcohol. Laws that prohibit the sale and use of hard drugs should be applied to all drugs, including tobacco and alcohol. What is your opinion?
Drugs are something that could have some effect on people’s minds or physical state. Some drugs are prohibited from use as they can destroy the health of people who consume them.
