“Decriminalisation creates too many practical difficulties for police officers to implement policy, and there are inadequately designed and resourced diversionary programs. At this stage, we do not believe a threshold has been met whereby community members can be kept safe through a process of decriminalising or legalising illicit ‘hard’ drugs including amphetamines, heroin, cocaine and MDMA.

The supposed Portuguese drugs miracle – in which giving up enforcing the law was supposedly followed by peace, love and joy – has ended, as it was bound to do, in squalor, crime and fear. And the endlessly praised Amsterdam dope experiment, in letting rip despite the law, has been rejected with disgust and regret by many of the people who live there.

Time To ‘Just Say No’ To George Soros’s Campaign To Legalize Drugs: In his 2004 book “The Bubble of American Supremacy,” Soros stated: “When I decided to extend the operations of my Open Society Foundation to the United States, I chose drug policy as one of the first fields of engagement.
