Disciplinary panel had found Julian Bennett guilty of gross misconduct for refusing test when accused of smoking cannabis
I get that it’s hypocritical for someone in his role and he wasn’t allowed to refuse the drug test but goddamnit how dumb is it to be grilled over smoking pot when other countries have fully legalized. It’s fine in Canada. The problem is fentanyl. Do something about fentanyl instead of wasting time on weed ffs.
Nah, legalize all drugs and make sure there’s a place you can pick up artisan heroin and organic crystal meth.
I’m not opposed to that - it’s in the “do something” category
Small batch ethically sourced cocaine?
Hmm, that sounds nice but do you have that in a larger size?
We would appreciate it if our customers could go easy on the Bolivian Marching Powder this month. Unfortunately our locally sourced Colombian has been impacted by recent devastating storms in the area so we have limited amounts to go around.
You might be interested in our free-range, cage-free crack rocks?
You could buy two or three batches.
Yeah, nah.
Legalise the harmless ones.
Decriminalise the hurtful ones.
Destigmatise drug use and offer healthcare of both body and mind, so people can get help if they want/need it.
The harder drugs only exist in an unregulated black market where criminals thrive. Legalize all drugs and let pharma companies make them to ensure purity and standardized doses. Sell them at a cheap price and watch the drug cartels crumble away as their blood money dries up.
let pharma companies make them
Sell them at a cheap price
Have you been living under a rock?
No but it can and should be legislated for lower prices.
He said, totally ignoring the opioid epidemic.
Decriminalizing only hopes criminals that sell them.
Legalize and ensure a safe and clean supply.
Alcohol is worse then nearly every currently illegal drug and almost all governments sell it.
Only helps**
Decriminalising means we can continue to go after criminals selling them without hurting the victims of them.
I’ll take an alco over a meth head any day thanks.
I’m not really concerned what you’ll take over what to be honest.
I’m just concerned about what’s the best for society.
And not having meth heads roaming around gacked out of their mind is what’s best for society.
I’d be willing to bet a substantial amount of money that the vast majority of people who use/abuse stimulant drugs, have adhd and ptsd.
Providing access to clean amphetamine, would be far kinder than removing all access.
And creating a society that provided high quality, free at the point of use health care, would be even better. Access to adhd diagnosis and prescription medication would save so many people.
Do the math.
Alcohol is much worse for society then drugs are now.
Normalize safe injection sites. Zero deaths.
