Well if they didn't fine users (and as I understand it they only focus on sellers, I have seen police officers walk past people taking drugs without caring) they would not have anything to do except catch people driving too fast and complaining about lack of manpower then they would get bored... that was a joke about Norwegian crime rates, and also the fact that they want to make begging illegal, but apparently having designated times when begging is allowed would be too much? anyway, moving on to my serious answer.

I do see where you are coming from, and where my problem with illegal drugs lie is not exactly with the drugs themselves, I just don't want illegal drugs around me, but that is a personality thing and so on and it is too complicated to get into now.

And I would be okay with making illegal drugs legal, as long as it is monitored and the heavy drugs are prescription to people whom are already drug addicts and so on. For all I care, pot could be sold alongside my cigarettes as long as you have to be 18 to buy it.

Because as you mention Drug Cartels are not nice people, heck the Norwegian Hell's Angeles aren't really fluffy kittens and they basically deal in drugs and control the tattoo parlours (sp?) in my old hometown among other things and they are responsible for a lot of our crime over here.

As someone whom have grown up among drug use (and criminals for that matter), I do also know that my uncles would not stop being criminals if drugs became legal, even if some of the crime they commit is to get drugs, so making drugs legal is not a quick fix on those types of crimes.

I LOL'd. And then the people they caught driving too fast would say, "Don't you have any REAL criminals to catch?" :-D
