@Jack Jones there where just 2724 people in Singapore arrested for drug abuse in 2021 out of a population of 5.45M. That's a per capita figure of 50.4 Compared to yankville where there per capita figure for felony drug arrests alone is 498 in the same year. A staggering 1.5M felony drug arrests. Now compare the two with Phillipines which actually had a real war on drugs. It went from a narco state to a per capita arrests figure of just 30. So, we know what works and what doesn't work. We know what a real war on drugs looks like, and what a fake one looks like. Yankville should either choose a real war on drugs or quit complaining.

@Jack Jones Philippines was a narco state worse than Mexico, being a chain of islands had no effect on that. Physical size likewise isn't a factor of relevance. Yankville have several pieces of legislation on the books at both federal and state levels that allow indefinite detention of any person(s) that can somehow be framed as linked to terrorism. This is a really simple concept. Yankville always complain that if they take one drug lord out someone else takes their place. But the only reason that can happen is because they know they know it'll be years before police catch on and decades minimum before an arrest. The stakes aren't very high but the rewards are. In Philippines what they did was have the military execute anyone suspected of manufacturing, trafficking or distributing, drugs. No trials. No appeals. That has significantly increased the price of doing business in illegal drugs, which in turn has meant no one wants to step into past king pins shoes. No one wants to deal either, because they know what it means. But most importantly, it's utterly changed the culture from one accepting of drugs to one that no longer does. That's a long term solution because communities that don't accept drug use, are less likely to engage in it. Mexico export to yankville because there's huge demand. You don't have to solve the problem in Mexico to solve the problem in yankville. If everyone is too afraid to traffick, distribute and deal on the yankville side and demand falls, then the market collapses so the Mexican exports stop, or at least reduce to a trickle. Now, if yankville don't want to go down that path that's cool. I never said they have to. What I said is this is a choice. The solution is clear. If you don't want to solve the problem then don't solve the problem. No one outside yankville actually care if you solve it or not. But if you're going to choose not to solve the problem, stop complaining about it.
