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.
You don't have the lawless Bolivia next to you, producing tons of weed every day. There lies the difference.
Also you can't imagine the sheer amount of Bolivians who have emigrated here, there are at least 7 or 10 houses full of Bolivians in my street. We might as well just unite with them and establish the "Republic of Brazil and Bolivia" at this point.
No, but we have the Netherlands, where a lot of weed comes from (illegally but also some legally).
Now I'm jealous. I wish we could trade places.
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.
That's a very mature point of view. Thank you for not being like the others in this thread. We need more individuals who are capable of thought and who express those thoughts.
