The thing with Drugs is that, the 'War' is not being won.

Not only that but the trade ws driven into the hands of the Criminals (Al Capone was not the only hood involved).

Drugs being illegal is not stoppinig people using them and on that basis I ridicule the idea that since they are so easily available at the moment making them legal (and taxing them) will increase use......

We have huge problems with tobacco and alcohol, both legal. Both also available legally and taxed and illegally and dangerous. The same would happen with the drugs market.

That said, I don't think we have the right approach yet.

Acceptable in the same way that alcahol (a far more camaging drug than canabis) could be made less culturaly acceptable if it were made illegal?

Perhaps you ought to have given them a try.......Did you try booze cos it was legal? Or did you try it because everyone else was doing it? Cigaretes? Coffee?

There are diferences in gradation of legality and, to be frank, I know people from a lot of different walks of life who have contrasting _iews, but there are many who would say that swinging is socialy devisive.......

I know it is now but it wasn't 50 years ago. Give people the right to choose same with knocking your self off if you want. Govt tell you far too much what you can and can't do and you should have choice.

Canabis is illegal becasue a bloke who owned a load of forrests in the US felt his papaer business was threatened by his competitors making (far superior quality) paper from hemp.

He used his connections in the US senate to have Canabis and the cultivation of hemp illegal.

Following the 2nd World War, the US, having institutionalised the 'war on drugs' used it's cultural and political clout to have it's client states follow it's lead, hence the British drug laws of the 1960's.

I tried alcohol because it was legal and thankfully never tried smoking and dont like coffee.

I know alcohol is far more damaging than drugs which is because it is legal and acceptable and there are even dens in every almost every town and village in the UK and if alcohol were to only be discovered tomorrow and knowing the damage it caused then I am sure it too would be illegal.

How come there is not the alcohol problem in mainly Muslim countries where it is banned?

It has nothing to do with the psychotic side of the drug leading to mental health issues?

I realise the drug can help MS/ME sufferers, it has some benefits, but the illegal production that contain MANY harmful substances in its growth and nurture process are not helping matters for it's fight to be legalised.

The scale of drug wars over opiates and chemical styled drugs are the biggest problem of any culture.

Legal drugs, such as, codiene are BAD! No two ways about that. It is found in nearly every product related to pain and even colds remedies in some form or another.

It's the politics and power behind any drug that is the main killer.

Who deals in crack and heroin? Sanctioned bodies/the government OR gangster/organised crime? Maybe both, one lot pays tax the other doesn't.

Cannabis is grown by both the government for medical and financial reasons and also organised crime/gangster organisations, one pays tax and the other doesn't.

On the side of the law the medical governed side of drugs are grown/made to safety standards, the ungoverned are grown/made purely to make profit from any means necessary.

There are a few things both organisations share and thats money and the power to distribute the said wares and both fight one another to do so, that is the political side of it and both want to make money from it too.

Power, money and politics, every country has it, does it and will continue to do it.

We certainly need a scientific approach to drugs, based on evidence as well as what is appropriate for adults in democratic societies.

It seems pretty conclusive now that the war on drugs is lost. It also seems evident that adults want to take drugs that are _iewed sometimes as illegal. A huge problem that this 'war' has created is that we knowingly foster a culture where drugs are manufactured and sold illegaly, leaving people to ingest things of unknown purity, which is also damaging to our society.

An alternative system is needed where people are supported better, and this widespread potential for poisoning is minimised. Whilst some drugs could be _iewed as poisons, and we all know that people can overdose on many chemicals/drugs, at least control would prevent people from ingesting drugs that could just be arsenic but sold as something else.

I don't know what the exact solution is. It should allow adults to have control/responsibility for their own bodies, and it should ideally prevent £billions being earned by drug barons etc, and allow users access to safer drugs somehow. We'd also diminish our policing bills, as well jail costs etc, if people weren't automatically _iewed as criminals just because they choose to ingest something that the war on drugs doesn't like. Some countries have started taking some steps to forge a new reality, and this is refreshing.

"

Who says the war on drugs is lost? We only know what the situation is now, not what it would be if we legalise drugs. Is the war on speeding and burglary lost because it still goes on, do we simply roll over and give up?

Are we going to have the ridiculous situation where if you smoke in a pub you get find hundreds but if you take a line of you are ok. Who will sell these drugs, the state? Do we discount them when the dealers (who dont pay tax or vat) drop their prices to compete and they can afford to and unless we are going to give them away free all those who currently commit crime to pay for their habit will still do so, they have to get their money somewhere.

This current thinking of just legalise and it will all be ok is dreamland, we need to think this right thru and look at the possible/probable consequences first.

What you put is correct and I do not have any ready answers but the 'trendy' cry of legalise and all will be well is frankly rather simplistic, there will be consequences, maybe some good and some bad and probably some not even considered, personally I think it would make a bad situation worse.

But, as regards ciggies, there does not seem to be a huge crime situation (mugging/robberies/shoplifting etc) because people want their next ciggy but there does seem to be by people who get themselves addicted to a very expensive daily habit.

Sorry, but, I know a huge number of police, prison office staff and have even met a ex magistrate (who ran the witness waiting rooms) who felt that it was rediculous to keep recreational drugs illegal and let the sale of alcahol be so comparatively unregulated.

The short term, narrow minded point of _iew is that by making something illegal you will stop people doing it. We have made it illegal, even declared war on use to stop people using recreational drugs. Would you not define victory in that war as being people not using drugs? If you do, then forces fighting the use of drugs are not loosing, they are routed.
