Elton John Speaks Out: Legalizing Cannabis is a Grave Mistake
Interesting argument and although I agree the war on drugs has been an expensive disaster and can never be won, I'm not sure any government would ever produce the drugs themselves (and therefore in effect be labled a drug dealer) and the question would still remain, who would then produce them? Any legalising would more likely legitimise drug cartels who would still have a firm control over production. This is obviously not ideal. A much better idea would be to follow the Portugese model and simply decriminalise drugs thus making the possession of drugs for personal use treated as an administrative offence, meaning it is no longer punishable by imprisonment and does not result in a criminal record and associated stigma. Drugs however are still confiscated and possession may result in administrative penalties such as fines or community service. Drug dealers still face prosecution but drug users are given more help than punishment. 'By ‘accepting the reality of drug use rather than eternally hoping that it will disappear as a result of repressive legislation’, Portuguese reform allows drugs to be treated as a health, rather than criminal justice, issue.' https://transformdrugs.org/blog/drug-decriminalisation-in-portugal-setting-the-record-straight There certainly needs to be some 'thinking outside of the box' and since the Portugese model has produced lower incarceration rates, lower overall usage and less valuable resources spent on petty drug users, I believe this could and should be a world-wide model. -

Why does this clown even have a voice here? Are you a liberal who still cannot face the fact that the parties in power have been destroying the economy and world balance? Get a clue! 😒 -

ALL consulates in S/E Asia switch to online eVisa system effective Jan 1st 2025
Right now the TTEO (Thailand Trade and Economic Office) in Taipei is the GO TO place for visas.. They are a walk up consulate, and you get your passport sometimes the same day (or the next day at the latest) People have been flocking there for DTV's because they're easy going and a "user friendly" consulate My advice would be IF you're thinking of getting a visa before they switch over to eVisa get to Taipei NOW (before the 27th) and apply in person -
