That’s absolutely what I said in the first place, if you execute the BUYERS, you fuck the entire world up, everyone would be dead.

Plus, you do realize how easy it is to slip a pack of marijuana into someone’s jacket, call the cops on them, and get them executed the next day?

Yeah, good option, let’s just kill everyone on this planet, it’d be much easier than solving this problem. Heck, a few nukes would be more humane than arbitrary execution. Plus, what about human rights? Cops would need search warrants to actually bust people, so if people stay at home, doing drugs, they’re absolutely fine.

You’re not killing the root of the problem at all by killing the buyers, because simply, 1) there are too many, and 2) laws prevent this from happening, and 3) capital punishment is already banned in all of the eastern European countries, as well as many other developed countries, thus they won’t agree with this either. You’re not killing demand, because regardless of the abusers, medical institutions use drugs as beneficial aids for patients. You’re not killing demand, in fact, you’re not doing anything except killing a bunch of people for no reason – a person who has a bag of drugs in his pocket might be delivering it to his grandfather who’s sick. A few misunderstandings here, and that person would be dead under the institution that you propose.

The simple fact of the matter is that no, you cannot kill people for doing drugs, because drugs are beneficial. Drugs allow people to do whatever they want, and the only people that they hurt are of such tiny importance that it doesn’t have an overall effect on the natural progression of evolution, and, chances are, it won’t affect you. I agree however, that the government should abandon rehabilitation facilities for drug abusers, since the recovery rate is extraordinarily low.

Overall, there is no alternative – and killing off buyers does not stop the flow of drugs. There will always be new buyers as long as humans exist. Does the fact that there’s a death penalty stop murders from occurring? No, of course not. And it won’t work for this neither. From your ‘Utopian’ outlook, YEAH! It’ll work! But no, not in this world.
