We outlawed suicide, homosexuality, abortion & prostitution. We had laws that breached the human rights of women, Indigenous peoples. These laws had to be exposed & challenged, they were inhumane and wrong. Prohibition is inhumane and wrong — it should have been exposed and abolished years ago.
It's time to abolish prohibition - not tinker with it.

We can't properly move forward until we first develop an honest dialogue about drugs, a discussion that is rooted in evidence and truth. The legal vs illegal divide has no scientific or pharmacological rationale to support it.
