Nearly fifteen years ago, Portugal had one of the worst drug problems in Europe, with 1 percent of the population addicted to heroin. They had tried a drug war, and the problem just kept getting worse. So they decided to do something radically different. They resolved to decriminalize all drugs...

Once they get high, their brain short circuits their free will.
But in order to get high, they make a free-willed choice, so my statement remains correct.
In order to make a choice, one must have some understanding of the consequences. That is impossible in the case of drugs. They simply can't grasp what they are doing.
Let's apply your 'logic' to other areas...homicide, for example. Since hundreds of years of criminalizing homicide has not eliminated it...in fact, recidivism is common...should we not decriminalize homicide, and help murderers 'connect?'
“Exterminate on the spot.”
How very Due Process of you.
Frigging fascist.

That’s murder.
What does England protecting a Crown corporation drug dealing 150 years ago have to do with the the US War on Drugs?
People who steel don’t have to be drug addicts. Or in the words of a thief “I do it for the jazz”.
Anarchist.
Pro-drug dealer retard.
Murder violates the rights of the unwilling victim; drug use's only victim is the willing user, with any rights violations being those motivated by the War on Drugs.
Nonsense - the picture you post, for instance, is a well known Internet meme. The educational front of the War on Drugs is the only aspect that's done a damn bit of good.
You obviously can’t define “anarchy”, either. I’d refer you to a dictionary but I doubt you know how to use one.
You’re the one proposing “exterminating” people “on the spot”. Not me. I’m pro Due Process, no matter what the crime. You want cops “exterminating” people “on the spot”. Tell you what. Why don’t you go “exterminate” some folks “on the spot” yourself. If you had the courage of your convictions (balls) you would.
Pol Pot would have hired you in an instant. And from Hell Stalin nods at you approvingly.

They can bring a judge along and dealwith their trial right there. No problem with that.
Anarchist. Wouldnt be surprised if you are a drug dealer yourself.
What about the Jury? You going to do away with those too while you’re at it? How about defense attorneys? Want to get rid of them as well?
Keep digging, mouth breather. You’re putting on quite the show. It’s rather like watching a monkey at the zoo flinging his own feces.

Jury is esy. 12 folks in the drug dealers neighborhood.
The more you talk the more i believe you really are a drug dealer, or somene close to you is.
You are almost certainly a drug user. to love drug peddling scum so much.
Anarchist.
We had the opportunity to shoot down just two drug-runner aircraft in the 1970s, and the War on Drugs would be over.
Kind of puts a damper on the whole “on the spot” thingy, doesnt it. You want to knock on doors and dragoon them into service? How would you make sure they aren’t associates of the person you want to “exterminate on the spot”? How would you deal with that pesky guarantee of an impartial jury?
You keep using the word “anarchist”. It doesn’t mean what you think it means.
And if you call me or one of my friends a dealer one more time I’ll have the mods give you a little time out. How would you like that?

I’m so scared, you gonna tattle? They’ll see your own comments and see you started it, jerkwad.
Anarchist. Drug-dealer lover.
Go ahead big man. big tough guy. Go tell tescher.
Both of you tone it down.
I will. I just don’t take provocation Well. It’s over.
Are you in favor of shooting looters? If not, explain why.
