Saigon – Drugs

[Stred]

40 years ago today Richard Nixon launched the War on Drugs. Trillions of dollars later, and after locking up an estimated 1 million people per year over petty drug offenses, and the war is probably less likely to be “won” than it ever was. Saigon has teamed up with In Arms Reach and the Drug Policy Alliance to create this track for their No More Drug War campaign.

I'm not a major fan of Saigon but this is pretty dope.

I also heard that the producers of the greatest T.V series ever made 'The Wire' said that they would make another season if America stops the war on drugs.

I'm sorta 50 50 on this atm, whats your thoughts?

I think it would be easier to legalise drugs and prostitution. But they'd need to be some kind of attached rules to make it work efficiently.

At the moment most people aren't too bothered as the drug dealing and the fiends don't usually live in their neighbourhoods. When I was a kid, my road and the surrounding roads were nice. But 10 minutes away it was drug city. I have several friends who still struggle with drug problems now and are realising that they will be addicts for their whole lives. The only way out for them is to get an implant that physically stops the drugs from working.

I didn't know such a thing existed

Yeah. It is an implant for Heroin addicts. They have just upped it's length of use from 3 months to 6 months. So now you get it implanted and you have no choice but to not use heroin for 6 months. It isn't cheap, a few thousand quid, but I imagine a full time use of heroin costs more.
