Alcohol in this country was illegal, now its legal. Same for a lot of hard drugs. Cocaine used to be legal.
I don't think you can legislate substance abuse. Driving over the speed limit is against the law, and any driver who says they have never done that is flat out lying. Your also never going to stop the flow of drugs, where their is money to be made someone, somewhere will figure out a way to serve that market. That's capitalism 101. All we can control is what happens to those people after they become addicted. 1. We can send them to jail. This is the current method and IMHO the results are less than desirable. In jail they brush up on all sorts of bad ideas, like how to be better criminals and make criminal friends, join gangs etc. When they get out, they are still addicts though. 2. Another option is to just shoot them. I don't think that's a very good one. 3. Treat them somehow, maybe some other countries like Portugal can show us how that might look. I think at least in this country you have an element that glorifies criminal activity. So if you remove that from the drugs, IE put them in say treatment programs away from the regular criminals you might be able to separate the two and maybe make drugs less appealing to younger people to get involved with.
