I know your playing devils advocate but I still don't understand why people lump psychedelics with harder drugs.
Mushrooms are currently being used as possible treatments to depression, anxiety, and cluster headaches. Studies have shown that people have had a mushrooms trip have a more positive outlook on life. There is no physical addiction, it is one of the least "damaging" physically or mentally and mentally you find yourself straying away from doing it again for awhile. I'd say that is the complete opposite of abusive, possibly even beneficial :) http://www.miqel.com/clusterheadaches/cluster-head-mushroom....

Lumping them all together makes no sense, but then nothing about the current policy really does. Tobacco and alcohol remain legal despite our knowledge that both cause more deaths than Marijuana or psychotropic drugs. It's flat out stupid and illogical but then, most people are stupid and illogical too. Sorry, this topic brings out the cynic in me.
