Legalizing Drugs means Draining the Supplies of Organized Crime

Legalising cannabis in the UK 'would raise hundreds of millions in taxes'

Great, but that is not why it should be legalized.
It should be legalized for human freedom to explore consciousness, to relieve pain, and to use the plants that nature has put on this earth.
Also, to stop putting people in jail for using drugs.

Yes, fully agree, but in today's unfortunately ignorant capitalistic world the tax thing could be more promising to get it through. I'm happy to see that sometimes sober facts nevertheless get attention, in times where common sense seems to be chronically out of stock.. And the fact that legalizing would drain so much income and structures of organized crime, not only with marijuana but even more so with things like cocaine, heroine ... they could save million's lives, billions of tax income wasted for prohibition and senseless police activities, all that ...

Portugal has made the first step by decriminalizing the possession of small amounts of any drugs. They did not see an increase in drug consumption or addiction.
The world should finally look on the bright side of things instead of always looking for the catches.. this makes me so sad. We have such endless opportunities in our 21st century, and people are busy to sabotage anything possible.

(Yeah, this point of view has been proudly presented by Research Chemicals® ;) in a previously suicidally depressed individual.)
