you want heroine being sold at your local gas station?

Please

I don’t need someone who’s legally allowed to heroin responsible for a baby

If I was a tobacco exec I’d make weed illegal too, but imo it comes down to racism and who’s making money off what

truth be told tho i wouldn’t really support heroin, crack n meth being legal ever

At the very least simple possession should not be illegal. Up to a certain amount. Everyone would agree the war on d**** was an absolute failure.

Arresting a fiend for possession solves nothing, and making the d**** illegal clearly hasn't stopped the d*** problem.

Look at alcohol prohibition for example. When alcohol was made illegal it led to bootleggers who sometimes sold bad batches that caused death, as well as made alcohol trading violent because of gangs cashing in on the market. Alcohol was made legal again and immediately there was a drop in violent crimes around the trade of alcohol and a drop in deaths due to tainted batches.

Now maybe you'd argue alcohol isn't as damaging as the other d****, but the core of the argument still stands, it being illegal has solved NOTHING and has only done more harm.

Yeah racism was the biggest factor originally. A growing amount of white youth at the time started to visit opium dens, smoke weed and listen to jazz and become friends with minorities. Like Reefer madness was just about how weed lures white women to fall for black and Mexican men.

Cause they can’t be monetised

Well that's never gonna happen even if d**** were legal it's not like you can do that s*** with weed. I'm sure people do it but it's not legal.

Did anyone post that joen rogan interview with the author who knows this?

god yall are so stupid lol

didn’t he bring up something about heroin being a gigantic problem in Switzerland, and nothing they tried worked. But then they created facilities that allowed people to legally obtain heroin and also work to rehab them off it, and it completely fixed their entire epidemic, where criminalizing it only made it worse

Decriminalisation has proven to be successful in countries like Portugal. Decriminalisation is not the same as legalisation, which some people have confused in this thread. I agree with decriminalisation but not legalisation (depending on the substance). IMO it should be done on a case by case basis supported by research (like weed).

Yeah that's the one

He explained how weed became illegal but idk about other d****

Nostradamus (legalized in Oregon)

Im tired of ya'll comparing hard d**** to alcohol or cigs

@op I highly recommend Drug Use for Grown-Ups: Chasing Liberty in the Land of Fear by Carl Hart. It's about how some of the biggest dangers of d**** come from their being illegal

Libertarian nonsense.

Need that private prison revenue babyyy penguinz0 voice

I'm generally team legalize everything but I do see the argument for government having the responsibility of looking out for the best interest of its citizens and upholding some sort of general moral framework

Decriminalize and better rehab support.

Walk down Kensington Philadelphia and say yeah her ion should be legal. S*** is f***ed up. Need to find a way to help these people that ain’t lock them up.

Loser s***

Decriminalisation is must

And legalised weed & acid

Probably because government controls the black market and get much more money then if they were legal.

My non conspiracy take is that there DUI is a problem and that's only alcohol, but imagine if people get access to cocaine, heroin, meth, everything will become much more random and hard to control.

Alcohol literally one of the worst d**** out there

Still not sure about lsd tbh but definitely legalize shrooms
