I dont understand how decriminalizing possession is going to do anything to reduce the current epidemic.
Tap, Rack, BANG!
It might not but I think it's also good to look and see what's not been working for the last 50 years and maybe try something different. There's all that court time, police time, prison time, all that shit is really expensive. Maybe they can use some of that money on programs instead, it honestly can't be worse and more expensive than the past 50 years.
And it's never stopped anyone from doing any drugs they wanted

I have never understood why taking drugs is criminal... If you start breaking into shit and stealing to pay for your drugs, now you are a criminal, but simply fucking with your own body makes you a criminal? That's just silly.

I’m more curious what would have caused the drop from 18 to 19? Was that a good year for the BC economy?
I feel like when people are gainfully employed, they tend to stay away from junkie drugs.
Most of bc is a scenic shit hole.

Legalize drugs, drastically ramp up enforcement and sentences on junkie related activity (like stealing catalytic converters, bikes, car prowling)

Of note, buddy of mine on the fire department. They have "regulars" that call 911 and say they are going to overdose.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
They effectively die, get revived and repeat the following week.
On a four day shift they will respond to ~20-30 overdoses.
Current protocol is full fire engine and four firefighter response + dose of Narcan + EMS to hospital.
1 persons overdose costs tax payers ~$5000+ in responders.

It seems to have worked for Portugal.
I'm all for trying something different. Doubling down on the same policies over and over for the last 50 years hasn't exactly been effective...
Michael shellenberg (running for governor of cali) has done some exploration on the why Europe’s decriminalization model works, and why America has a misunderstanding of it. From his view, doing drugs in public would still be illegal, and judges would give the user a choice of rehab or jail. Much more of a carrot and stick vs. “Just let them live their lives if plain sight”This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
