Comments by "TJ Marx" (@tjmarx) on "'Everyone is taking it': Cocaine addiction spirals in Scotland | ITV News" video.
Rodrigo Duterte took Phillipines from one of the biggest narco states in the world, into one of the safest tourist destinations with drug use rates Europe can only envy in just 3 years. He did that by genuinely declaring war on the manufacturers and distributors of drugs and sending the army in after them. The problem we always have with drugs is that we are always so focused on the users. Arresting users. Treating users as a health problem. Users, users, users. You will never tackle drugs from the consumer side regardless of your approach. You have to tackle drugs from the supply side and you have to stop worrying about the "rights" of these murders. And they are murders, they push poison all the deaths are on them. Send the military after them. No arrests, distribution in quantity (around a key or more) string them up in the street, head on a pike. It worked in the Phillipines, it can work in Scotland.
