War on drugs has failed, say former heads of MI5, CPS and BBC…
The “war on drugs” has failed and should be abandoned in favour of evidence-based policies that treat addiction as a health problem, according to prominent public figures including former heads of MI5 and the Crown Prosecution Service.
“We have the example of other countries to follow. The best is Portugal which has decriminalised drug use for 10 years. Portugal still has one of the lowest drug addiction rates in Europe, the trend of Young people’s drug addiction is falling in Portugal against an upward trend in the surrounding countries, and the Portuguese prison population has fallen over time.”
I see the war on drugs as simply another tool of control. As a tool of control, it has multiple functions; 1.subjection, fragmentation and weakening of the general domestic population and imprisonment of specifically targeted opposition leaders. 2. additional income for the black ops divisions. 3.Destabilization of drug producing countries and 4. a plausible excuse to send military components far and wide outside the physical limits of the empire. There are more advantages to the Owners.
I just don’t see legalization as a potential reality for North America.
