https://www.npr.org/2011/01/20/133086356/Mixed-Results-For-P... Portugal is an interesting one. But you pain a one sided story. So basically problematic usage has gone down. But regular legalized decriminalized recreational usage has gone up. So I picture it like coffee. More addicts everywhere but it's legal. Replace coffee with heroin and it's pretty much the same picture. Is it better to live in a society where everyone does a cup of heroin in the morning and it's totally normal and no one is dysfunctional or is it better to have the heroin relegated to a few violent problematic users? It makes sense. You decriminalize a crime you get less crimes. Maybe changing perspectives is the solution but then again maybe not. |
