I thing ALL drugs should be legalised:
Firstly the western countries are losing the war against drugs.
My reasons for wanting this are:
1. Mkaing drugs illegal means that people who do them have to become criminals: if they were legalised the police could concentrate on people commiting crimes that damage others.
2.Druggies and drug barons are involved in other criminal activity: legalisation would mean that drugs could be sold cheaper, therefore less people wpould have to steal to support there habitat and reduce the power of the drugs barons who r powerfuly and commit many other crimes.
3.Money: right now millions are spent figthing drugs and drug related crimes: these costs would be non-existent and so the police could concentrate on other things.
Economies in 3rd world countries which now must destroy there drugs could make drugs a major part of their economies and sell them to western countries: great boost. The western countries would then be able to make a profit my selling them to their people.
4.Less deaths from drugs: lots of deaths from hard drugs are caused by the dfrug being cut with things like cement powder and so on, or just not being the drug in question: this could be stopped.
5: Living conditions would improve for people hooked on drugs wyho now have to work hard or turn to crime just to support their habit
And a minor point: people encouraged to do drugs just because it was illegal would not start (though I realise this would probably be conuteracted byh those people who would start after it was illegal
