    Selling isn’t legal in Portugal but all (nondistribution) drug use has been decriminalized

    Decriminalization has serious issues for safe medicines like cannabis, but I prefer it to legalization for opiates personally

      I also prefer the actual legalization of all drugs. Decriminalization is barely better than prohibition with inconsistent purity and implicit support of organized crime.

      Edit: Oh sorry, I misread. I’m curious as to why you support decriminalization but not legalization. Also, aren’t many forms of opiates already legal when sourced correctly? Like for medical applications and stuff?
