Bad, where's the incentive to quit the stuff? Problem of drug-related crime solved at what costs? And is it solved??markie said:
What's next: gamblers getting money to solve gambling-related crimes?? Drunks getting free booze - alcohol-related crimes solved??
I think it's a good and bad idea, good because it stops/reduces crime ( having said that i'm sure theres some addicts who take a vast amount of drugs per-day more than they would get of the doc, so that would make them go out and commit more crime )
Bad because as WYL said where's the incentive to quit if they can get it for free. Some might think " great we can have our normal amount and get a top up off the doc " which will make them worse.

Good idea. They aren't going to give it up unless they really want to; so either they are going to spend the rest of their (short) lives taking illegal and dangerous stuff, bought on the streets with the proceeds of crime and funding further crime; or else they are going to live a relatively tidy and orderly life taking drugs on prescription, like the rest of us.
If ciggies were illegal I dare say a lot of the addicts would turn to crime to maintain their habit.

But neither can you give them a freebie.
What about law-abiding people, paying taxes for this?

I get my prescription drugs almost free; if I was poor, or young, or old, I would get then all free.
If legal drugs stop crime why "can't" you?
Law-abiding people currently pay for the police and the prisons and also suffer the crime.

Whoever gets caught doing/taking drugs should get banged up and be made to do cold turkey, then they think twice before doing it again. 
No, not neccaserily(sp),they go in, cold turkey, come out, and are a bit more cautious, or take easier things like mugging the elderly, i live near it all

Through choice they take drugs...
There is enough £££££ spent telling people not to smoke, drink, gamble, unprotected sex, you name it.
If people are given all the facts & then still do these things AGAINST ADVICE why should the majority of us have to sort them out.
