I think drug use is abominable.
But the war on drugs has been an abject failure - just like the “wars” on poverty, illiteracy, homelessness etc have been. Just a cow for the political class to milk.
If there was no “war on drugs” we would not have synthetic drugs like Meth and Fentanyl killing thousands of people every month. It will only get worse.
20+ years on this site, I know I am in the minority opinion. But the WOD has been an absolute disaster just by looking at the results.
We need a better way.

We should focus on the Gangs and the Dealers, rather than going after people for mere possession.

I’ve been saying the same thing since I joined back in 1998.
