So, taking drugs leads to a criminal lifestyle does it?

Yes, very often it does. Drugs are not free, drug users can't work, drug users get into debt with dealers.

Of course, we're not talking about occasional cannabis users, but then, they are not the ones committing violent crimes.

For balance, some recent criminals in Essex, starting with a drug addict that assaulted a cancer patient.
Bloody white people, coming over here and committing crimes!
 
I think there have been trials of giving free drugs to addicts. If I remember right it caused general crime to fall as they no longer needed to burgle or mug people for cash to buy drugs.

Our current approach to drugs is crap, but the left don't agree with shooting all drug users (think how many by-elections we'd need!) and the right won't allow it to be legalized and taxed because it makes baby Jesus cry.

if the drugs are only available from criminals, it puts money into the crime business.

there is not much of a criminal market in beer and fags because you can buy them legally from controlled and licensed suppliers, and the quality, strength and purity are also controlled.

the organised crime business would hate to see drugs sold legally.
 
Yep. The best thing we could do is legalise cannabis.
While it won't stop trade in class A drugs, it will keep kids and other impressionable people away from the criminals that push harder drugs on to those they feel will become addicts.
