Don't get me wronged guys. I have no intention to defend Father Robert Reyes. I just feel it that he was correct when he said "Ang droga hindi crime". If I had to analyze it deeper, the word "droga" and "crime" are two different words with different meanings. So that I had to google it for their meanings, psychological effects, impact and effects on society including the drug related crimes which can be read below.
What is (droga) drug? A drug is any substance that, when inhaled, injected, smoked, consumed, absorbed via a patch on the skin, or dissolved under the tongue causes a physiological change in the body.
Drug addiction come from the reason the user is addicted to drugs, as well as the changes that take place in the brain once a person becomes a drug addict. Other psychological effects of drug addiction include: Wild mood swings, depression, anxiety, paranoia, violence.
The negative consequences of drug abuse affect not only individuals who abuse drugs but also their families and friends, various businesses, and government resources. Children of individuals who abuse drugs often are abused or neglected as a result of the individuals' preoccupation with drugs.
Crimes related to drug abuse include stealing to obtain money needed to buy drugs, buying or selling drugs and offenses related to the lifestyle.
Most directly, it is a crime to possess, manufacture, or distribute drugs classified as having a potential for abuse (such as cocaine, heroin, morphine and amphetamines). Drugs are also related to crime as drug trafficking and drug-production are often controlled by drug cartels, organised crime and gangs.
What is crime? Legal Definition. An act or omission that violates the law and is punishable by a sentence of incarceration. See also felony, misdemeanor, offense, and violation. anticipatory crime.

Nang sabihin ni Padre Reyes na "Ang Droga Hindi Crime" he did not specify what particular drug. At yong mga nakabasa, nakarinig ay agad nag-jump sa kanilang conclusion at agad ipinako siya sa Krus and of course, hindi ko rin masisi sila dahil sa simula paman itong si Padre Reyes at lahat ng mga Dilawan ay against sa "War on Drugs" ni Pangulong Duterte. Kahit ako nang mabasa ko itong sinabi ni Father Reyes doon sa isa kong Facebook group na kinabibilangan agad ako nagkomento nang ganito: "He is an idiot" na hindi ko muna inunawa ang kaniyang sinabi.
