My mother's uncle drowned himself in the local pond many years ago. They found his cap floating on the surface. I suppose I can think of worse ways to go.

Can't do it that way, then. I don't have a cap.

I don't remember anyone being executed in Sweden?
Also according to this map, decriminalized Portugal has a lower usage rate, and other countries with similar drug enforcement have higher rates.

That kinda poo poo's over your argument that harsh laws have any real effect other than to punish drug users or pushers, for the sake of punishing drug users and pushers.
All kinds of social issues contribute to drug use, very little if any evidence shows harsh drug laws achieve much.
Well, saying that they do achieve a nice bloodthirsty attitude.
My MIL recently died of a sudden unexpected rupture of the heart; the coroner said she wouldn't have known much about it - she was found on the floor looking relaxed and as happy as a corpse could be said to look happy. I reckon a quick bleed would be a good way to go.
When I get the dementia diagnosis I'm going to do the same as that Manchester Chief Constable Michael Todd did - climb a Scottish mountain in winter (assuming I've got enough of my marbles to find it), neck a bottle of Scotch (single malt, naturally) then undress. The vaso-dilative effect of the alcohol sends chilled blood to the brain and you're gone in seconds.

Do we punish speeding drivers for the sake of punishing speeding drivers?
Do we punish paedophiles for the sake of punishing paedophiles?
Do we punish tax evaders for the sake of punishing tax evaders?
Nope. We do it because they broke the law.
Abide by the law for the particular country you are in and have respect for those laws and every thing will usually be fine and dandy.

Evidence shows otherwise, I know that is inconvenient for you, feel free to cite other examples that have different social and economic causes whilst still ignoring evidence.
Still doesn't disprove that the 'war on drugs' kills people.
