Hard drugs like cocaine and heroin are extremally unsafe in the purist form, however nothing is more unsafe than fentanyl and many people are being poisoned to death and are labeled as drug overdoses. By legalizing these hard drugs you will get a certain group of people that would not otherwise buy drugs, taking them now because they are legal. But I believe this will eventually normalize and society will view these drugs the same way they view alcohol. To proceed with more education and caution.
Alcohol, though legal and normalized, still poses significant societal issues, such as alcoholism, drunk driving, and health problems.
One example that comes to mind is the opioid crisis in the United States, which was largely fueled by legal, prescription opioids. Despite being legal and regulated, these drugs caused a wave of addiction and countless deaths.
