I'm not opposed to legalising crystal meth.

Substances are often deemed too dangerous to remain in free circulation. Radioactive dust 'affect individuals and society' in the same (incredibly large) way you describe drugs. But since there's not many uses for it that doesn't involve a great risk for someone, it's deemed illegal. That's as clear a criteria then the one that makes cough sirup legal and nerve gas illegal.
