Can't agree with this - certainly not for for Class A drugs . Lost track of whether Cannabis is a Class B or C, but could be swayed about legalising that.

Legalising (Class A) and making it cheaper would merely increase the number of users/addicts and the damage to society that causes.
Legalising but keeping price similar means, apart from an increase of users/addicts, that the same other crimes will be committed to pay for the next fix!

You disagree, thats fine! No matter what the law states or what resources are put into prohibition it will not even dent the supply of these drugs, all it does is drive it underground, keep the suppliers rich and force the determined user into crime to support their habit. Many people use these drugs in a more responsible manner and don't create these social problems, a bit like alcohol.

We have used the law in an attempt to stop the supply of these drugs for probably one hundred years now and at what success? probably zilch! So how do you propose to improve the situation, please inform us of how the authorities have got it so wrong and what they need to do next!

I don't have a solution.

But I know that legalising hard drugs is definitely not a solution!

Surely if you know legalising hard drugs is definitely not a solution then you must have a reason why it's not! In that case the next logical step would be to form a solution based on this belief. Or, is it just a gut feeling?

The man has a point.

Has there been a report stating the definitive use of drugs?

I haven't seen one.

Probably because the people who tested him, the ones with the genuine evidence, are the same ones sweeping it under the carpet. 2 cheeks of the same backside.

The usual merry go round of political crap.

Where should the line be drawn ?

At about 6cm, anything longer I have to take a 2nd breath and blow the stuff everywhere

I should correct my statement slightly - 'I know' should be 'I'm absolutely certain'!

I've already stated the reasons why (I believe) it's not.

The rest of your post would only be relevant if I was actually trying to find a solution, which I'm not! Nor am I trying - for quite similar reasons - to solve the Ukraine situation, the Gaza conflict, Cancer, Child Mortality, the Pension crisis, Climate Change and a whole host of other issues!!

Thats a pretty stupid reply actually.

So what's your solution to the Ukraine and Gaza situations and Climate Change? And can you implement them?

Neither being qualified nor in a position to actually implement any solution to the Drugs problem, I can only hope and trust that those who are are making 'proper' decisions - the reasons and results of which I might examine and, perhaps, criticise (constructively). If you think that's 'stupid', fine, but it seems pretty sensible to me!

That doesn't mean I'm not aware, nor concerned about any of those issues! Just that I can't affect them (much).

Btw. I have actually had a home broken into and items stolen to support Drugs purchases!

I gave you my solution to the Drugs problem. Regarding Gaza and Climate Change they are not directly related to it so thats why I suggested your reply was stupid.

Yeah, making them legal! That really would be stupid - for the reasons I gave!

Oh well! if it was the reasons you gave then it must be right!
