Despite it being counter-intuitive to many, prohibition consistently fails, the War on Drugs has been lost, and those countries, states and counties that have decriminalized drugs (alongside mandatory counseling and so forth in some circumstances) have seen reduced addiction levels, criminal profits and related crime.
The trick is the hard slog of selling it politically.
Hats off to David for starting to make the case.
