I completely agree with this stance. It is vital for society to have some form of consequences for engaging in illegal drug activities. Allowing individuals to freely partake in such dangerous behavior without any repercussions only perpetuates the problem. By confiscating their drugs, imposing small fines, and providing a brief period of incarceration, we can make it clear that drug decriminalization is not the answer. Sending these individuals to rehabilitation facilities also presents an opportunity to address the underlying issues driving their drug abuse and promote long-term recovery. The majority of citizens would surely support a system that emphasizes personal accountability and works towards a drug-free society.
