If you find a country with fewer needles on the streets and fewer people using drugs, we are happy to listen to their policies and how they accomplished it

Singapore is tiny, not much more than a city-state. Rates of drug use is also a matter of honest reporting.

And wow are you really advocating execution of people with addiction and mental health issues that use drugs?

Japan is not tiny, and has a fraction of our drug use. They’re also brutal with drug crime.

I wouldn’t execute drug addicts. But their pushers? Line-em right up!

You realise that most/many addicts will sell small amounts to other addicts?'

Do you advocate the death sentence for drug company executives as well?

Yes, the executives of big pharma are the first in line.

The Dr. and pharmacists who enabled the opioid crisis as well.

Just curious: would you advocate lining up liquor store owners? Bartenders?

Alcohol consumption has purposes other than mere intoxication. Likewise I wouldn’t execute a pharmacists who sells opium for legitimate reasons.

But sure, if you have an alcohol executive cutting their wine with methanol, pushing it to middle school kids and breaking interstate laws shipping laws to evade enforcement, like you did in prohibition... screw him.

If alcohol was as illegal as the drugs are today, sure. Even during prohibition the actual laws against alcohol were much more lenient than today’s laws against opiates.

Singapore, being a city state ruled by a benevolent dictator, is not comparable to nation states with normal political systems.

Period.

You have a shockingly narrow understanding of addiction

By that logic we should emulate the reasons the moon has fewer people using drugs.
