* Manchester Evening News reporting a former drug addict in Manchester saying; "In a way, legalising drugs could help cut burglaries, drug dealing and a lot of gun crime and turf wars."
* The US Conservative Voice: “In addition the government needs to … eliminate the 'War on Drugs' which is creating criminal activity on an unprecedented scale."
* The Canton Rep, Ohio: “The entire "war" on drugs has done nothing except increase demand and fill our prisons and jails while those who should be in prison are on the streets. If you want to control anything, then legalize it and tax it.”
* Usnews.com “Regulation can reduce drug use. In two generations, we've halved the number of cigarette smokers not through prohibition but through education, regulated selling, and taxes. And we don't jail nicotine addicts. Drug addiction won't go away, but tax revenue can help pay for treatment.”
* Michael Braun, chief of operations at the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) speaking at the Washington Institute; “The al-Qaeda or affiliate cell that carried out the Madrid train bombing funded that operation in almost its entirety through the sale of illicit drugs… These hybrids …have morphed into one part terrorist organization, one part global drug trafficking cartel. The Taliban and FARC are two perfect examples, and they are, in essence, the face of twenty-first century organized crime -- meaner and uglier than anything law enforcement or militaries have ever faced.”
* Gay Byrne, in the Irish Independent: “For how long more than 40 years do you continue to apply a solution [drug prohibition] to a problem, which not only doesn't work, but also which makes the problem worse with every passing day, before someone, somewhere, says that maybe - as in perhaps - there might be a better way?”
* The New York Times; “Today, a dizzying array of armed groups lord over the farmlands of Nariño [Columbia]…Their presence reflects the symbiotic nature of the armed groups and the drug trade, each drawing strength from the other… [C]oca growers have nimbly sidestepped almost a decade of fumigation efforts by reorganizing industrial-size farms into smaller plots that are much harder to find and spray from the air. They are taxed and protected by forces on the various sides of the conflict…The FARC and other groups will survive as long as there are safe havens, the flow of drug money and large, remote regions unconnected to the broader economy.”
* Irish Times; "Illicit substances have been in demand here for at least 350 years; no legal measures have ever made a difference."
Hmmm.. maailma alkaa onneksi jo herätä. Huomenta.

Niin, tällasia uutisia mäkin olen maailmalta lukenu aika paljon viimesten 10 vuoden ajan mut eipä ne juuri lainkaan edes Suomen valtamediassa näy, mistäköhän johtuu? No Suomi on Suomi.
Vaikka tällasta kannanottoa näkyy paljon ja monet jopa poliisiviranomaiset on järkevän huumepolitiikan ja järjettömän huumesodan lopettamisen kannalla, niin en usko että mitään olennaista tulee vielä ainakaan 10, ehkä 20 vuoteen muuttumaan.
Huumesota on myös niin pitkälti poliittinen ilmiö, asiasta löytyy infoa jos kiinnostaa.
