Drug Reform, Here and There

Posted by <Xnoubis> on Sunday October 08, @11:09AM
from the peace-pipe dept.

California's Proposition 36 “requires probation and drug treatment, not incarceration, for possession, use, transportation of controlled substances and similar parole violations, except sale or manufacture. Authorizes dismissal of charges after completion of treatment.” This is so close to a reasonable drug policy, it's hard to believe it's on the ballot. I hope all California Thelemites act together in voting Yes on 36.

The observation could be made that some controlled substances shouldn't even require treatment. We're not there in the U.S. yet, but the Cannabis Report of the Swiss Federal Commission for Drug Issues [requires Acrobat Reader] offers a thorough argument for the legalization of the possession, use, and sale of marijuana (or at least – in order to comply with international treaties – Dutch-style quasi-legalization).

Visualize the Drug War ending in our lifetimes . . .

And now a politician in the U.K. has admitted to not only having tried marijuana, but having enjoyed it!
