Infiltrating Europe’s Most Dangerous Drugs Gangs | News on Drugs 

It's not full picture. There will always be drug crime so long as all drugs are not given out for FREE and as much as the users want. If drugs are not given out for free (and as much as users want), they WILL commit crime in order to pay for it. Merely legalizing drugs, even ALL drugs, will do nothing. Be careful what you wish for!

@@smeggyhead1 I don’t disagree! But it will greatly reduce it. A fair amount of users just want to use and be left alone and not take too many chances on going to jail and having to withdraw over some dumb 💩. Functional attic’s who can hold down jobs and control themselves. This I know because I’ve been one of them for decades. But your absolutely right tho. The more hardcore users that go balls out, all day everyday.. Those ones will continue on the same path. In either case it’d be a step in the rite direction I think. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@smeggyhead1 Of course you will never get rid of ALL crime committed to pay for drugs, just like you will never get rid of all crime committed to pay for anything like, say, groceries for example. However, if you had laws that made the cost of groceries be artificially inflated to incredibly high rates then the associated crime being done to pay for them would be very high. Then if you repealed all of the laws that artificially inflate grocery prices, then the rates of crime being committed to pay for them would also fall drastically. So it's absolutely, blatantly false nonsense that legalizing drugs wouldn't lower the crime rate when it comes to crime associated with drugs and their artificially high costs and that is just ONE aspect of crime rates when it comes to prohibition. You also have the violent crime associated with different groups fighting over territory. You have the fact that people get sent to jail for nonviolent, victimless drug crime and then come out with criminal records that make it more difficult for them to get a job, rent a place to live, etc. so they turn to illegal ways to make money to live. You also force nonviolent drug offenders into jails and prisons with actual criminals who committed property crimes and violent crimes and they then make those connections and learn how different things work and come out with the knowledge to commit those crimes and the contacts needed to do so. When alcohol prohibition was going on in the US, there was a large increase in crime especially violent crime which did not continue when we ended it. If it was the alcohol itself that was causing all of those high rates of crime, not the PROHIBITION of alcohol that did, then crime rates wouldn't have changed. Prohibition is harmful to both people who use drugs and to society as a whole in EVERY way.

@@danxdanger There is a difference between groceries and drugs: groceries don't rot the mind and cause people to do crazy and deadly things; the same cannot be said for drugs. This is where your analogy, in my opinion, doesn't follow. As for prohibition: it did drastically reduce violent domestic crime, it got men off constantly drinking hard spirits. While I agree alcohol is worse than say cannabis, it is absolutely not as bad as the likes of meth. Drug users 'chase the dragon' - go on to stronger substances.

@@smeggyhead1 With legalization drugs would be a lot more affordable, of course, we can't avoid all crimes as it is part of being in human society, but police could focus on solving real crimes instead of filling jails (criminal universities) with people they found carrying flower in their pocket. Let's not pretend we don't know what the CIA did in South America and why there was a war in Afghanistan, someone has a fat financial interest in continuing the war on drugs and keeping the prices high. Cartels are just pawns in the much larger game of chess.

Over and over? One time is enough for me, thank you.

legalisation is as absurd as war on drugs, none is going to solve any criminality issue, how do i know? several countries have legalized soft and hard drugs, some since a long time, with no impact whatsoever on criminality.

@@lo2740 hard to stay positive lately. Don't let it get to you.

@@lo2740 what countries have legalised illicit drugs and haven't seen any positive consequences?

@@lazeppelini123 Its bad on all sides really. Legalization of all drugs and treatment for people that want help is the only way.

@@lazeppelini123 "those who use drugs think they are gangsters and are dangerous." That is the most ridiculous statement I have ever read. people who use do not think that. people who are fucking loosers think they are gangsters, there's nothing wrong with fun in moderation

@@mothp1lls307 That "fun" is still harmful. But hey, if you wanna harm your body, go at it, but don't act like "moderation" is still good, however. Edit: Not saying drugs should be banned. Alcohol is legalized, and the "fun" it brings is still harmful to the body. I agree moderation is best for *addicts* but I'd never recommend drugs or alcohol to anyone. Even in said moderation.

Indeed. I started smoking cannabis about 10 years ago. Now in the more recent years most of the ''cannabis'' i can find where i live is synthetic cannabis.. Which is very harmful, and its very hard to spot the synthetic stuff because they use bad crop and mix it with synthetic cannabinoids. Which is far stronger than the normal stuff, and it can be as addictive as heroin.. As of now i've stopped smoking because i don't want to risk it, might have a puff if i'm in Denmark, or Nederlands where it is legal in some places. I really wish they would legalize, atleast cannabis in my country.

Demoralization of a society, that is. Mamy people want many of things, doesn't mean everything should be legal nor freely available.

SPREAD THE WORD *

Whilst also controling it , if you know you know .

I'll just say this, over 70% of my home town does illegal drugs, what do you think would happen if you arrested everyone in my home town that did drugs? (that's a low estimate BTW)

The police are conspirators in a war they knew they’d lose due to the billionaires running the show

Zombie apocalypse for drugs. Watch them all go through withdrawals 🧟 when we go into a recession and they aren’t handed money to buy it everyday.

Great comment, i wish everybody understood that. I started doing Heroin 14 years ago and im on a stable dose for years already and have to buy Methadone from the black market. I tried to get help quite a few times, but it seemed since i was functional no one really cared. No one around me knows about my problems. I also have depression and suicidal thoughts since my childhood which are the reason i started doing drugs in the first place. All in all it is help yourself or go to prison/die, if that doesn't change addicts don't even have a reason to get away from drugs to try and reintegrate into a society that doesn't want them anyways.

are there teenagers drinking alcohol on twitch streams now? it would be the same situation essentially lol I remember when I was 17 it was easer to get coke than alcohol, so I could honestly see with legalization and regulation it being harder to get both the coke and the alcohol for kids in future.... a bump before a round of cs wasnt so bad hahah

@Strong-arm Dagerm did you even watch this video or just come on here to make an ignorant comment? looks like the latter to me.

idk about cheaper, but i agree with the rest. look at weed when it is legalized prices sky rocket cause politicians need to line their pockets.

You got it wrong boss...only right way is kill drug peddlers

​@Strong-arm Dagerm What? He's right. It has literally been proven in countries where drugs have been decriminalised that addiction levels drop drastically.

How would you have a legal regulated market of heroin? It is impossible to have a regulated market of substances that creates an enormous dependency on the clients. Dealers will always have the power to manipulate the junkies and it could spread easily. Is just a free ticket to all kind of abuses

​@@raulcalvo4230 Thank you for asking. There is actually something called 'heroin assisted treatment' which involves the provision of medical-grade heroin (also called diamorphine) to registered patients as part of a treatment programme. This is happening in multiple countries across the world including Switzerland (since the 90s), UK, Canada, Germany (& others). It has excellent evidence backing it and allows for extremely marginalised people to have their lives stabilised. A legally regulated market would allow for this to happen on a larger scale. I really recommend going to our website page about this to learn more about how it works and see videos. If you search ‘heroin’ on our website then you will find all of the resources.

@@TransformDrugPolicyFoundation that is not similar to a regulated market. That is a health assisted treatment payed buy the contributors.

@@raulcalvo4230 We believe that a legally regulated drug market should use a system of licensing based on an assessment of risk. This system would establish different levels of restriction - ranging from very lightly-regulated sale in shops to supply by prescription only. We advocate for the legal regulation of heroin to be medicalised because of its risks. We absolutely need to be taking a public health approach to drugs rather than a criminal one. Were you able to look through our resources that give extra detail on this?

​@@raulcalvo4230 This requires a lot of effort and research. However, nothing we could possibly do, could be worse than the status quo. Physically addictive drugs like heroin, shouldnt be sold in stores, they should instead be given away for FREE to registered heroin addicts. As much as they need, whenever they need it. No matter how bad that sounds, its way better than leaving destitute people to rob handbags from grannies and give the money to violent dangerous criminals

When I think about this issue, it reminds me of how healthcare in places around the world needs to be changed drastically. Specifically the “great” country, USA. So many aspects of our society needs a deep cleaning from within.

Absolutely

Exactly they ended prohibition, what did they learn that makes the war on drugs not only sustainable but profitable?

They are not civilians tho. They can't be treated like civilians because they have special powers in order to maintain public safety and along with social worker like training, they have fighting an familiar style training to end threats to the public and apprehend criminals. The "neighborhood watch" style of policing only leads to corruption. Policing needs federal oversight and enormous chains of command. Small "community" based groups are prone to too much bias etc

…more like an extension of Dunkin Donuts.

So true

What do you mean by "taxation"? Charging a high tax on legal drugs? Or just taxing those drugs in general.

​@@abceckswhyzee7169 Regulating and taxing the sale of previously *illegal* drugs. For which you would need a script from your Dr. (or however it works in your country) Btw, legal drugs are already regulated and taxed.

@@PushyPawn Ok thanks for the info! I had no idea legalized drugs were regulated 👍

he wasnt serving the people he was serving idiotic government policy ,prohibition causes a lot more harm than the drugs ever do or did

Don’t be naive lmao

Obviously didn't watch the video, just promoting their own channel

@@matronofsquirrels I did watch the video, and I have quite a lot of respect for a cop who tries his best (even though we may differ in opinion). I live in a country where 30% of the police officers are in a gang, supporting the ""business in that way. I am not saying that government policy is good, nor do I support the choices made by the police chief. I do respect the people who have become cops to serve a purpose.

@@26OP011 don't fully agree. Prohibition with the right measures can actually have an effect. But a retarded policy will indeed never succeed

You live in a dream world if you think anything will be done about this. Ive been an addict for 25 years and know all the ins and outs and ups and downs. Things simply will not change. Could you imagine Liz Truss saying she will make life better for drug addicts? 🤣🤣🤣

No it's working perfectly. Social control. Eugenics. Stifling human healing and evolution. Getting most of the population dependent on legal DRUGS... And running a profitable business amongst all that. Seems to me it's all playing out well... ☠️☠️🐣

Neil Woods! Thank you, I was trying to find his name...

In a desire to respect your comment and it's desires as much as possible, I'm gonna do some drugs after finishing this reply. I was about to do them anyway (taking a dab of hash oil), because it's that time of night, but now I'm especially motivated. This is a part of my normal routine behavior every night (and generally every day also). I consumed a bunch of other drugs as well throughout the day, including caffeine, several drugs related to caffeine, and a number of different steroids, stimulants, and a neuromodulator, many of which were psychoactive, and I see it as no different whether they were prescribed by my doctor, my druggist (the old name for a pharmacist when prescriptions were written on paper so you could find them on the shelf at the store, not so they could be dispensed from a lockup), or my dealer/dispenser. If they recommend it for whatever ails me, I'm gonna try it out, and I've been on the dispensing end as well many times, mostly hosting cannabis bars at local music events for partygoers to sample different strains in single use quantities, at a markup of course. These days it's all vapor for health and safety reasons, and hits are cheaper than ever as a result (vaping is more efficient, especially vaping extracts). What used to last me a few days can now last me a couple of weeks, I get higher from that same supply, and my lungs don't hate me for it. Legalization has literally changed my life for the better and I'm fucking here for it

question incase you might know, where does the government purchase its heroin or cocaine to supply? We can't exactly start buying from the taliban or cartels. And we can't start producing fentanyl because the taxes increase crack prices too highly for example. So ive always supported legalization but i don't understand the next step no one ever talks about where we supply crystal meth from.

@@InkheartKnox I won’t lie, I don’t know. I’ve never thought about it. They probably have the contacts already. A country knows what’s going on in their country, they just decide that some fights are worth fighting than others.

@@khanyikuzwayo Yeah like I just always focussed on legalising but now the conversation is progressing im now confused for the next step. And furthering the convo lets say we give the green light for all drugs and we officially import drugs. That allows an easy access point for drugs to enter europe for example if we are talking about UK. This wont be accepted by neighbours, or if we buy off for example the taliban we are then arming them against their neighbour's. 🤔

The short answer is there will always be criminals. People willing to break the law for a profit. Difference is, with a regulated market, the dealers have an enormously reduced customer base leading to reduced profits

Actually the price is lower because they're all competing against each other. It's not 1970s prices but its cheaper than the 90s!

Some of them are as real as they come 💯💯✌️
