Singapore has long bitter experience with drugs. It has controlled the problem by HANGING trafficers. That is the solution. To stop the organized crime portion you take out the distribution.

There’s a reason it’s a “long bitter experience”.
It doesn’t work.

I agree with the Singapore solution for hard drugs, but marijuana is not a hard drug. Ronald Regan's view on the topic was very similar to Sarah's.
I'm not sure I agree with legalizing marijuana, bet I do think the penalty should be something realistic-- such as is applied to underage drinking or using prescription medication for which you don't have a prescription.

Singapore is an authoritarian hell hole and one of the worst countries for civil liberties. Fortunately nobody in the US would ever want to be like that god awful place...I hope.

Tell me. Did they do that back in the 20's too when they tried to ban alcohol here? And how'd it work out?
