I thought they used Coca leaves, not the refined powder?
Well, yes, the active constituent being cocaine. Meaning they're using it in small enough doses that it's no more dangerous than a cup of coffee.
Ever had chocolate covered coffee beans? I once kept popping those at work absentmindedly like chocolate covered peanuts. The result was not pretty.

Have you ever heard of Quat? Or Kwat? Or however you spell it. It's a stimulant from the Middle East, and I think you have to chew the fresh leaves.
3nodding I've always wanted to try that, and betel nut.
Though not at the same time...that might have an effect similar to the coffee bean incident...

And if they were legal and regulated, they would be slightly harder for minors to get, and wouldn't contain horrible mixes -- like dangerous badly made Ecstasy.

There was a recent major seizure of tabs around my area, and I got to explain to my mom why MDMA should be legal. Saying that "millions of dollars worth of ecstacy" was found is probably incorrect--god only knows what was in those pills, maybe no MDMA at all.
