Most reasonable humans know the approach is wrong headed.
I’m getting harsh criticism for pointing out the obvious when I’m trying to start a debate
Can’t we just stop paying ppl to b drug addicts
It’s not fucking working
You mean throwing people in Jail for being in possession of plants, criminalizing vulnerable addicts and taking the rights away from decent members of society who want to experiment with their own consciousness isn’t working?!
Who knew.
Legalise it. Distribute it through licensed stores and tax it properly. Everyone wins.
Legalise soft drugs, decriminalise hard drug possession. Make drug abuse solely a health concern and not a criminal one since criminalising it has zero effect and if anything just makes the damaging social effects worse. Put an emphasis on harm reduction, provide substitutional rehab services, provide clean drugs on prescription and safe use facilities to users who cannot quit using the services the state provides.
Dealing and trafficking etc can of course still be a criminal matter although it should be a relatively low priority thing and only really targeted when it’s obviously a problem.
Need to get over the past century or so of thinking on drugs, it’s plainly obviously that it doesn’t work. Some might not like it but fuck them, they’re wrong.
Legit though drugs are out of control in the uk, the actual money and power behind it is unstoppable. Im pro good drugs it would be great if i could buy them ethically sourced and hopefully avoid a proto scottish narco state , northern ivory coast if you will
Lets say they make weed/hash and E legal. That pretty much takes care of all the other drugs. I mean, if you could go down to the local Tesco, pick a once and 6 pack of pills, who the fuck is going the local shady drug dealer looking for anything else???
Other plus points, you get shit thats not been cut with anything nasty. Most, if not all, drug related deaths, are caused by contamination. Take the fuck wits out of the process, and you get nice clean drugs.
15 year ago, Prof Nutt released a report giving a simple to see chart scoring the effect drugs had on users, and society at large. Heroin, crack and crystal meth were deemed worst for individuals, with alcohol, heroin and crack cocaine worst for society. With alcohol leading by a country mile when considering the harm to users and society together.
E had virtually no harm to society, while harm to users was minimal. 15 fucking years, we have known this to be true. Yet, we arrest people for have E, and let pricks run around the street drunk at all hours, with no regard for anyone.
Im not saying lets ban booze, Im saying lets stop pretending this about health and safety. Its always been about petty fucking morality. And it needs to end.
Scotland has had the highest OD death rate per 100,000 in all of Europe years on end, while countries like Portugal that have safe drug rooms and decriminalise drugs have almost no OD deaths, and the police have finally figured out throwing people in prison for wanting to get high doesn’t work??
And? Complain to your MP police just enforce the law
Medical cannabis has proven to work in the uk now, time to legalize it for recreational use.
Also we are fucked financially so bring some tax in, then your wee local dealers are out of business and frees up police etc to catch rapists etc
