"Eventually Opium, MJ and Cocaine were seen as dangerous substances and laws were passed against them."

The only way I could be wrong about this statement is #1 one or more of them had laws passed to control the use of them or #2 there were laws against them all along. Possibility #3 is that no one or at least no one in the position to pass laws saw them as dangerous.

Now which part or parts of the statement is wrong?

Tobacco an alky is controlled by minimum age requirements. Someday I expect tobacco, nicotine to be exact, to be illegal. It is an addictive drug that is harmful. At least the people suing the tobacco companies claim it is and they are winning.

Alky is not dangerous if taken in moderation. A lot of common things taken in excess is dangerous. You can die from eating too much salt.

It is difficult to draw a line between what is necessary like salt and what is unnecessary like drugs. Has anybody's life ever been improved by using illegal drugs? If so they don't have nuch of a life. They need to fix their life instead of escaping from it by using drugs.
