Portugal is largely ignored Asi, because it has been successful. 99% of people would be completely unaware of it. Drugs are illegal for any number of reasons: they make the govt money (both US and foreign), they create more laws and hence more criminals (if you are breaking a law, the govt has more control over you...govt only fears free citizens), they make the military-industrial complex money, they make the banks money etc etc None of it has anything to do with actually keeping people safe, or preventing harm. Unfortunately drugs are such a politicised issue now that if you even suggest de-criminalisation, let alone legalisation, you are looked at like you just pulled your cock out and started swinging. Any rational conversation at that point goes out the window. 2012-05-13 17:56:05
