Drug Use is Spreading Out of Control
Press Release 2010-11

The popular trend of recreational drug use has been on the rise for years now. Drug addiction has naturally risen in conjunction with the rising trend. Some people believe that substance abuse is such a problem, that now addicts will stop at nothing to get their fix. Analysts report that when something or someone tries to intervene with a person who’s addicted to a substance from obtaining that substance; the users are likely to lash out, becoming enraged with anger and aggression. This leads to prohibitionists fighting for the ban on drugs.

Prohibitionist report that they want sobriety. That they stand for the ban against drug and substance abuse in order to reduce danger with in their communities. The support that by banning illegal drugs will reduce this danger and save lives. However opponents to the prohibitionists argue that if the true goal of these prohibitionists were to reduce this danger they speak of and save lives, why not focus on the two deadliest substances in the world; alcohol and tobacco. Instead the prohibitionists focus their efforts on trying to ban mepehedrone, and prescription drugs. Alcohol is responsible for 40,000 deaths a year and tobacco is responsible for which kills 80,000 people a year. There are even more deaths from people consuming peanuts than dying from mepehedrone. The cause of the prohibitionist would be more credible if their efforts were redirected. However, the two opponents disagree, they do agree that drug addiction and substance abuse is becoming out of control. Just criminalizing the drugs are not enough.
