- siquick 8y agoYou can't "do what you want", there is just no jail time for possession.
- ziont 8y ago> no jail time for possession. isn't that the definition of 'do what they want' if you are not going to put people in jail for drugs people will do drugs.
- platelminto 8y agoPeople will do drugs regardless, the threat of jail has, historically, not worked. What Portugal showed was that punishing them is actually counterproductive.
