Legalisera droger asap, för allas skull
"When you institute a prohobition like we have with drugs in this country, what you are doing is not protecting people from other people. You are attemting to use law enforcement to protect people from themselves. Protecting you from yourself is a function of family, church, education and the health care system. It never is and never should have been intended to be a law enforcement function. We are out there inforcing morality when we enforce drug laws and that is not our job. We were not trained to do it, we are not capable of doing it and if anything else; you see the failure of it..."
Vi måste inse att visionen om ett drogfritt samhälle är ouppnåbar, och att man istället måste ta en skademinimerande approach. Det ska inte vara polisens uppgift att jaga människor för att de tagit "fel" drog. Den stigmatiseringen som lagstiftningen skapar gör ju att missbrukare drar sig för att söka hjälp, för vem vill hamna i polisregistret med alla konsekvenser det innebär?
