[QUOTE="It will be fine, post: 3614152, member: 55017"] I don’t think that viewpoint is supported by evidence. More people will seek treatment and get help with decriminalization. Better public education will reduce usage. Destigmatize the mental health issues that lead to addiction and more abusers will seek help. It’s a public health problem, not a criminal one. Robbery will remain illegal. Look at cigarette usage declines with a public health education effort that’s lasted for decades. We have evidence based models that work, we should explore those over ones we know don’t work. [/QUOTE]
