And let’s maybe try again:

I think, we’re having a social problem.

Just like guns can’t be freely distributed in our current society, drugs shouldn’t be as well.

But it’s a social problem. A gun doesn’t kill someone, a drug doesn’t forcefully inject itself into you.
They are things, they can’t be blamed.

We need to work on the social problems, that give us gun violence and drug problems.

But we should start by taking responsibility.
Drug land isn’t Disney land, where nothing can hurt you.

that’s why I think education is so important,

So then you retract your statements that make it seem like opiates are something one can safely experiment with. Good.

  I never retracted anything, I just made myself clear (again), that the problem is a social one and you can’t just blame stuff like drugs
  
  I just can’t stand the argument, that drugs are the whole problem - because it leads to even more social problems and can be used as an excuse for war by a government
  
  I didn’t want to get personal, but you told me I’m lying, while I just said what my experience was - and if at least 2 dozens others I know.
  
  There are also people who had problems with opiates, speed, coke, alcohol etc
  But all of those tried to keep their social role up with the help of substances. And I personally struggled sometimes as well, as it’s an easy relief (for some honeymoon phase). But I couldn’t stand being dependant on something and so never really developed that exact problem.
  I was always aware, that I’m trying to cope with something and that is my actual problem.
  
  That was my sole critic

    Well hopefully mods do their job and remove your pleas that children try heroin. I’m done here with the pretending we’re having a nuanced conversation about societal problems which you didn’t bring up at all until you had your back against a wall.

    Yeah, because I’m thinking, that the root problem should be the focus instead of blaming a symptom…
