This scenario works fine for me however, legalizing emotionally disturbing substances is infringing upon MY right to live in a relatively sane and safe society. It doesn't need to get any worse. It IS infringing on my rights to increase potential dangers by allowing psychotic drugs to be legalized. Mike this IS why we have laws and why certain aspects of government are needed voted by and for the people. Plain and simple. We are not going to agree on this one.

You have a point...to a degree...
But you are assuming that drugs make ALL people behave in this way, and they do not. Just like alcohol does not automatically turn all people into drunken, school-bus-ramming idiots. Those who cannot "handle their drugs" are in the minority, much to the disdain of the "War on Drugs" crowd. As with anything radically new, there would be problems initially...but problems can, and would, be ironed out.
