Lithuania moves to decriminalise possession of drugs

  1. Good news, and somewhat surprising that the criminalization only lasted four-five years:

    > The amendments aim to reinstate regulations that were in force until 2017, when liability for possession of small quantities of drugs without a purpose of distribution was provided for in the Code of Administrative Offenses and not in the Criminal Code.

    I guess they saw zero benefits while the law enforcement costs increased?

  2. Whatever is going on in Lithuania lately, I like it. Vocal about China, supporting Taiwan, decriminalising possession of drugs and giving Lukashenko shit.

    Well done, Lithuania.

  3. Dude… Lithuania is legit becoming the first ex-Soviet Block country that I consider worth moving to if shit hits the fan here. Godamn, those guys are progressive… not a drug user, but I think it’s the right move.

    Go hunt those dealers and drug rings, though. Hunt them like the animals they are.

  4. I like the new Lithuanian government but I have surface-level knowledge. Any Lithuanians with insider knowledge? How is the new government percived? They seem to be progressive.

  5. That was fantastic to easily remove one of criminal law lists to ensure the fair mental health treatments for agitated drug users (with proudly programs)
