That should've happened about 3 years ago. Better late than never though.

I'm Romanian and my country already has harsh drug laws. The result is that people who want to do drugs still do drugs (duh), but the stuff is obtained from sketchy sources and if something happens people would rather die than seek help because they're scared of getting in trouble with the law. Drugs are also demonized which in turn makes raising awareness difficult. All these things help absolutely no one, very much the opposite actually. So no, I don't think that kind of attitude and policies are good. I believe in widespread awareness, regulation and compassion (and obviously legalization). Keep an open mind.
