Journalists, media goros can talk whatever ship they want about drugs. Politicians spouting moralistic rubbish is another problem. But the biggest problem is what the police say. More often than not, drugs policing increases crime in an area. If you create a gap in the market, then two or more people will fight over that gap. Happens time and time again. The police know this, but they're not telling the public that it is. So that, i think, is the biggest impediment to the growth of the social movement. Because like any social justice issue in history, change with drug policy will come through the growth of social movement,. rather than political leadership.
