I get the concern, but people need to learn about what Portugal is doing with #DrugDecriminalization. It can work for Seattle if we do it right.

I agree with you. Portugal's approach to drug decriminalization has shown promising results in reducing drug-related harms and improving public health. Seattle could benefit from studying their model and tailoring it to our own unique context. Education, harm reduction, and treatment should be at the forefront of our approach to combatting drug addiction.

I understand the argument, but we should prioritize addressing the underlying issues instead of decriminalization.
