Drugs at a low risk level (marijuana, alcohol, cigarettes) should remain legal.

More serious drugs such as cocaine and heroin should remain illegal, but there should be greater methods of rehabilitation and counseling instead of harsh criminal repercussions for using them.

Yes, and we should start to regulate all drugs as to provide safe drugs for those who use. As well as provide TRUE education on these drugs rather than just fear monger.

Yes for some drugs but the government should also increase the funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation.

Decriminalize drugs that have medicinal benefits and don’t imprison people for doing drugs. Only the distribution and acquisition of illicit drugs.

Yes, but with properly tested and proven methods to ensure user safety. And that we are punishing dealers and suppliers not users for drugs
