You're a strange one, aren't you?
Yes, it does. Of course it does. How does it not?
The very fact that you sheepishly acknowledge that some drugs are illegal in some countries while not in others, and ask others to vote accordingly in your poll.. really says a lot.
If anything, that just shows the arbitrary absurdity of it all. It doesn't suddenly make it morally right and wrong, lol.
Really? You can't resign from the army? Hmm. I didn't know that.
Secondly. I'd find someone to report them to, I wouldn't want the people who are supposed to have my back to be high. The same as i don't want the driver of the car i'm in to be drunk
Uh... You must be very young...
You would find someone to report them to? Who would that be, the enemy?

What I've been patiently trying to explain to you is that during war, the 'normal' rules of behavior don't apply, nor should they. The enemy doesn't follow any and only the survivor gets to write the history.
While I'm sure that's the case with some things, I.e. the value of human life is lower during a war. Certain moral absolutes don't change.
So, tell me, are you willing to die for your anti drug absolutes? Cuz, frankly, that sounds God Damn stupid to me.
I didn't say i'd kill my self for my principles but I would go a long way to not compromise my principles.
Oh, believe me, you wouldn't have to kill yourself.
Nope. Got "legal" good stuff in storage if I ever need it.
OK well if your telling me that people in the british army who take drugs would execute me, then I say I would definitely report people like that. In a heartbeat.
The fantasy world you live in doesn't preclude you from getting dead. Not surprisingly, if you haven't been there you don't get it and, once you've been there (and survived) your world view is indelibly changed. I'm just drunk enough to hope you never have to experience the world as it really is.
I suppose if you mean my fantasy world as a world where the military isn't high then yes I'm happy where I am.
Reality is never what you'd like it to be.
No it's not, which is why we should strive to make it that way.
Strive away. I've always been more interested in people who wanted to stay alive.

I'm in the Canadian military and I've done all sorts of drugs:
Weed
Hash
Cocaine
Ecstasy
Mushrooms
Acid
Salvia (legal)
Perks
I'm sure there's more.
Go ahead and report me. I've already admitted my use on the application forms and in every security clearance interviews.
I'd never report someone for having used drugs in their life, the difference is when you are under the influence and people are relying on you.
Depends on the situation. I know people who are better at their jobs when they're under the influence. Say all you want about it, but you have NO idea what is involved when you have such a job to do.
There's a reason I haven't been released due to my...transgressions.
I don't care whats involved, I don't care about the results. it's wrong imo.
According to what, some law that was put into place a long time ago for completely different reasons?
