Or for people to stop cheating on their spouses. Or for people to stop cheating on their taxes. Or for all crime to be a thing of the past. ;-)

There will always be drug experimentation by some. There will always be drug abuse by a small proportion of those. The question is, how to humanely minimise the carnage to everyone concerned?

For example, I'm tired of us or people we know getting ripped off so some junkie can feed the black market economy while he feeds his addiction. Oh yeah, and tired of people saying junkies should just get treatment when there is no treatment to be had in this province.

Harm reduction is the solution. The war on drugs strategy is only hurting more people, ultimately.
