Questions of Legalisation
Written by Jon   
An explanation from a pro-drug legalisation perspective
When we're talking drugs, where does the emotion come into it, for freedom and saving lives: there are no words except one: legalise.

Are legalisation campaigners advocating insanity in the streets?

Drug deaths go down when prohibition ends, better quality, supply not linked to criminals...
The streets are already insane, or haven't you been out lately?

A clean, cheap regulated supply kills problems of badly cut doses, crime and much anti-social behaviour suffered the world over. Addicts can hit bottom faster and come up smiling roses, carrying on, or dieing. Much like now, but facilities will be improved by massive tax revenues on non-therapeutic drugs and intoxicating preparations.

More Martyrs to the cause or Murderers?

Would this situation exist the absense of the drug war?

Criminal and underworld current nature of drugs makes martyrs to the cause of addiction, in feeding crime revenues instead of pharmacy profit the government empowers a subculture of misery to exist in the twilight of a world illegal. Yet a world we have to deal with everyday. A world of hypocrisy that talks of free-trade, personal responsibility and freedom, but refuses to walk the walk.

Disabled people who take drugs shouldn't be treated different. should They?

Yes, they should, prison is unacceptable. They are vulnerable people, who don't need the added encumberance of a nanny state that wants to check every stool movement of it's citizens.

There's a war going on under your nose. The price you pay for gun crime, violence and murder is that which is committed against the nation's crack-houses at 5 in the morning. Raiding innocent people, using guns where unnecessary, and not punishing the wrongdoer and protecting the children of the poor. As the police are charged. in a land where an inner city child has a better chance of being stabbed to death then win the lottery... or drown to death being watched by pcso's going; "phworrr can't be getting wet, I ain't done no water safety training!"

Aren't our priorities kinda messed up? are we people, or principles?

Learn about educated common sense policies. Prohibition doesn't work. It causes a cornocopic explosion from one social ill of addiction, into a million more of sex trafficking, prostitution, theft, mugging, robbery, murder. For all the people whom die of drugs, how many more bodies are we piling on top accepting the insanity of the war against drugs?

Think about it. It's time to grow up Frank, propoganda ain't the solution anymore. Talk all you like. The law ain't helping, and that, Frank, is a Fact you can take to the Bank. It's time.

Legalise.

Let's not have a one hundred year failed experiment on our hands. We already got Democracy after all.
