Why do we need to end the war on drugs? (Aitor Basterra)

In this conference, the famous drug policy reformer Ethan Nadelmann answers the principal question of this polemic: Why do we need to end the war on drugs?

The reformer says that continuing with this world war against the drugs won’t have good results and the best example to prove this is that even the United Estates of America have tried to stop the use of drugs, they haven’t achieved their objective. When we ban the consume of drugs, people continue consuming them although they are illegal.

The governments prohibit the drugs to reduce the consume, but the real solution is to legalize them to regulate the consume. Moreover, if drugs are legal, the drug trafficking bands would disappear.

The legalization would probably increase the consume of drugs but only adults can use them and Nadelmann thinks that the consume would be responsible.
