Default Opinions on legalising drugs?

What are your opinions on legalising currently illegal drugs?

At first i should imagine most people would be horrified by the suggestion but on giving it further thought there could be some major plus points. If drugs were able to be bought legally at registered/certified outlets (pharmacies would seem to be the most logical places) they could be controlled more stringently in terms of what they contain, it would take the supply out of the hands of major criminal gangs, it may also be easier to wean addicts off their drugs as they could be supplied in various levels of "strength" so that they could gradually be reduced in strength until the addict was completely free of them.

At first thought if it could be properly handled my personal opinion would be to legalise them even though i hate the misuse of drugs. What do you all think?
