Since you're putting up a false dichotomy, I still think having homeless people on the street doing drugs is superior to executing people for having 1 kg of plant material that is legal in a good part of the world.

And a lot of people will disagree with you.
There are a lot of people in the US who want to hunt the homeless for sport but that doesn't make them right.
Well people that put "lack of homeless doing drugs" over a human life would be wrong.
What of the human lives the drug dealer ruins over his lifetime? Reality doesn't conform to simplifications of the level you're trying to pull here.
