I understand. I am not denying any of your problems, I just don‘t think that criminalizing it is a solution. It didn’t work in the past and it also won‘t work in the future.

No, but we have the Netherlands, where a lot of weed comes from (illegally but also some legally).

Brazil has one of the most strict anti drug laws in the world, isn’t that correct?

I am from Germany. We‘ll legalize weed soon.

And yes, drug usage certainly can affect other people, sorry about the confusion. My point was primarily about normal drug usage, not addicts. Criminalizing it certainly doesn‘t seem to help, every single country that tried this completely failed. On the other hand, countries that do the exact opposite seem to be pretty successful.

Edit: You just seem to ignore facts. It works in other countries. The war on drugs failed.

No, missing regulation led to the school shooting situation in the US. Just legalizing won‘t solve any issues, without any proper regulations.

Consuming drugs is your choice, it only affects your body, life and mind. Sexual assault and drugs can not even be remotely compared.

The drug market currently is completely unregulated. It‘s easier for a teenager to buy weed, than alcohol. If we make it legal, we can actually regulate it, like alcohol.

Can you tell me how it affects or even hurts anyone if someone is smoking weed at home? There is literally no point in making it illegal. What you can do is making it illegal to do certain things while under the influence of drugs, for example driving a car. And guess what, exactly this happens with alcohol too. But making the drug itself illegal is imo a bad idea.

This has already been tried and didn‘t work. People consumed it anyway (surprise).

I am not saying crack or other drugs are harmless, but man, have you ever seen an alcohol addict? It completely destroys your body, mind and family (which you like to mention when it comes to other drugs). You can absolutely compare it to crack.

Thanks! Wish you a nice holiday.

Thanks!

Yes, I have the same issue. I usually just want to scroll brain afk and not interact with every single post.
