I understand your point but The cowards in the darkness wouldn't be there if the problem was dealt with in a mature fashion, ie legalisation. These things are the marks of a mature society as far as I'm concerned.Originally Posted by meath chap

There's already lovely legal taxed drugs in everyone's community doing plenty of damage every night of the week. Anyone who works in frontline services will attest to that.
Having gangs of violent unregulated self styled police men will solve nothing no matter how romantic the idea seems.

you cant possibly legalise heroin,cocaine or ecstacy.... weed is debatable

Would you legalise alcohol if it was just invented today?
I wouldn't
Personally I think weed does less damage to society than drink

Alcohol & tobacco. Both equally as devastating as any illegal drug available on the streets.
I agree with tour overall sentiment though. The effect Heroin in particular has on certain areas of Dublin and in other cities and towns across the country is devastating and making it legal would not be in anyone 's interest but having vigilante groups roaming the streets looking to impose their own version of justice would only compound the issues.

the war on drugs has cost billions & yet still one of the highest grossing businesses, albeit illegal, in the world!
drugs should be legalized, regulated & taxed

It should ALL be debatable and possible. Addiction is still going to be a problem no matter what way we deal with it. If legalisation takes the power out of the hands of criminal organisations then that has to be a good thing. Regardless of whether you find that contentious I think it's now extremely obvious that the current 'war on drugs' is a farce.
