I know and all of them coming from African countries. I'm afraid our European governments are too weak to fight these gangs, maybe we should try to vote for tougher people. The other questions is if there are so many gangs, fighting each other, and killing citizens it means the market is worth it; the european population is indeed consuming these drugs. So the common guy is also to be blamed. No market, no drug dealing.

@@MartinJoergensen-q5v that is bullshit. There is no way that a legal drug producer could compete with criminals. Criminals will always be able to produce cheaper because they don't have to follow rules and obey laws. Criminals could also destroy legal factories. Besides, cocaine is just one of their income streams. They also traffic in stolen goods, like cars. Robberies. Contract killings. They will always find an edge somewhere to make money, and the danger will stay. Taking the gangs out is the only way to eliminate that danger.

[@FloIstMoep]

The part about Cologne is not up to date. The inner minister of Nordrhein-Westfalen publicly spoke about this connection, which he was later critisised for by the police. The newest public information is that the "Mocro-Mafia" was barely involved, or not at all. It was a conflict within a gang long-established in cologne, when a member stole from them with the help of outsiders. This led to the escalation of violence.

[@gwarlow]

Good luck Germany! The U.S. has been waging a war on drugs for the past 50 years - billions of taxpayer dollars that could have gone to education, infrastructure, fighting poverty or creating an affordable inclusive healthcare system - all wasted! But hey, give it a go… maybe you will have some luck. 😊

[@Mola_Ola]

They’ve spent billions on this “inclusive” healthcare system. Yet, they’re in the same situation. At least, overdose deaths are coming down in the US

[@EarlGreyLattex]

Omg I said the exact same thing in my comment just now!

[@EarlGreyLattex]

"The war against drugs is unwinnable and is now on par with the failed US-led war on terror. This too is US led and started as a way to legitimately destabilise socialist republics on America's doorstep. But just like prohibition and the war on terror failed, this too is doomed. You cannot conventionally fight this way in asymmetrical warfare. You cannot violently/forcefully control what people put in their bodies. People ingesting these substances is what creates a demand. And as long as there is a demand, supply will always rise to meet it. Cocaine was fading into obscurity in the early 21st century until the Taliban started ramping up production of opium to pay for their weapons, they sold it to the same Americans that were there to fight them. When the military finally managed to strangle the production in the mid 2000's, drug cartels that had been the middle man between suburban drug using America and the Taliban started offering up a more accessible drug to Americans which they could control the entire supply chain of. So the rise of the power of the cartels is directly related to the war on terror. It is asymmetric warfare like I said earlier. How do you win it? Not via Brawn's but by engaging in massive Public Health outreach programmes. Substance misuse needs to be reframed as a public health issue that if left untreated will always lead to criminal issues and not a criminal only issue. This frees up law enforcement, the prison system and the justice system to pivot to dealing with the top level criminals like the cartels and not average Joe blue who is a drug user and funds his habits via petty crime. Joe needs to be dealt with compassion as he's still human and it could happen to anyone, Joe needs specialist intervention both medically to make sure he can quit safely, and he also needs support in the community to help him navigate away from the life which used to revolve around just the substance misuse. Safe use zones and other forms of harm reduction are there to support these victims until they've reached a mental state where they can handle quitting. With the amount of money that has been spent on the war on drugs globally in the last 5 odd decades, I reckon the US could have paid for top notch socialised healthcare/universal healthcare and still had change to spare.... And millions of people would still be alive as well rather than fallen as victims to the "war on drugs". "

[@alanfender]

The guy at the beginning said it all, you can't win the war on drugs. That only leaves legalisation, at least the money can go then go into all the things we need.

@@0li_vi_er its cause you don't see the damage drugs cause to you. i'm not against the idea of legalisation of drugs but we should be wise and really think of what drugs are tolerable. i can say im totally okay with things like mushrooms and weed khat coco leaves. kratom, ibogaine, ayahuasca, they are medical and have long historical proof of it. i don't use myself. cause i read alot about cells and damage it can cause. u say it is propaganda propaganda exsist on both sides. you open up for alot of biochemical warfare if you allow all drugs more than you might be aware of.. brits once flooded china with opium to keep them weak. im not gonna use the alcohol versus weed but the argument that weed is more peaceful is a load of garbage. trust me i used to be addicted and would get anger tantrums regularly. the latest drug epidemic would be crystal meth and fentanyl those drugs are not medical they serve no purpose but wasting your life away. psychedelics makes u hyperaware.

Apparently, people are saying that the "anti-drug politicians" are actually "funded" by the cartels without realising it. Because, if Germany starts legalisation, it would be bad for the cartel's businesses. The cartel's money flows into religion groups that then backed up anti-legalisation measures. Cartel members are oddly close to religion groups.

[@phoenixrambles]

Waging war on drugs does not work. How many times do we have to make this mistake? No matter how much you try to stop drugs from entering the country or punish those who distribute them, it will always be impossible to stop drugs because as long as there is any trade or travel in and out of the country, it will always be possible to smuggle drugs in. The only effective way to stop drug violence is through economic measures. Legalization takes away the profit potential of drugs. If drugs are not highly profitable then criminals will not smuggle them and commit violence to defend their markets. While illegal, the huge profit margins on drugs means that even if the majority of their smuggled drugs are caught, the drug trade will STILL be profitable. To drug lords, drug seizures are simply a cost of doing business. And even if enough drugs are seized that it does begin to significantly cut into profits, the drug lords will simply increase the cost of their drugs, and since their buyers are addicted they will pay whatever the drugs cost. All that does is shift the financial cost of the war on drugs onto the people most harmed by it, the addicts. In addition to being the ONLY way to effectively stop illegal drug trade and drug violence, legalization allows the government to regulate drugs which is proven to significantly reduce harm. The government can do things like set limits on drug purity and ensure they are not laced with other drugs, which are both proven to reduce the addictiveness and harm of drugs. Legalizing drugs also allows the huge sums of money currently spent on drug enforcement to be rerouted to addiction services, which is also proven to decrease drug use. Most people addicted to drugs do not want to be addicted, and if stigma free, accessible, and affordable treatment was available they would take it.

[@jacques.cousteau]

Very interesting insight. I think however that Singapore has managed to eradicate drug trafficking by applying death sentence to smugglers. In the past it was used as a trade hub for other Eastern Asian countries, when the then-PM decided to take a harsher approach which has substancially decreased the number of drug users as a result. I can't say that is the right approach, I just wanted to show one case of seemingly effective "war on drugs". I believe China and Japan are also very hard on dealers

😅 Look at Canada then think again. They're after the money. They're not gonna go get a job a s stop producing drugs just because you legalized it. Legalization also exposes children to drug being around and helps normalize its consumption. Maximize punishment and you'll get better results over time, which is the opposite of normalizing a bad habit

Visting Amsterdam was really interesting, be offered cocaine in such an open way and the police being just one or two blocks away. The open market posed a lot of questions over whether these dealers were openly operating with the protection of police units.

A bunch of women leading the war on drugs, will never get us anywhere 😂 other than that all of the drugs in some way or form are allowed to come through with the oversight of the government same as in the US

[@VasVordokas]

Ecuador is already a narco state. And the “war on drugs” is likely to yield more effective outcomes if focus is shifted on demand vs supply. The latter is a function of the former not vice versa. The fact that so much focus is on the supply raises questions on if this is just a systemic way to exploit and criminalize the public in the west and the poor in the producing regions.

[@sannemwf3779]
