Petition for a Drugs Royal Commission

We call on the Parliament to establish a Royal Commission of Inquiry into:

The health, social, economic, and law enforcement costs of the Drug Prohibition.

The laws do not stop people from using drugs or protect families. After 50 years of harsh enforcement, illicit drugs are more available than ever.

Will you help us convince the government that the war on drug users does more harm than good?

Please, end the madness of the so-called “War on Drugs”. All the compelling evidence is in Johann Hari’s masterpiece “Chasing The Scream”.

I am going up on a drug driving charge on the 09/12/22 I have been researching on the internet to see how many accidents and fatalities that have happened in Perth due to drug driving and I have found very little evidence to support the theory that drug driving is related to major accidents me myself think they have it back to front as I’m more aware and alert and stick to speed limits and road rules alot more than if I hadn’t had anything so as not to raise suspicion and get pulled over most major accidents were committed by people who has nothing in there system at all and we’re due to either a medical condition, fallen asleep at the wheel, mobile phone,lack of attention,or speeding to me it’s the individual person that’s responsible for a crash whether they had something or nothing in there system it’s the individual choices at the time that do the damage and it doesn’t matter what you try to stop or ban it’s always going to have the same outcome cause the number of people that drink and drug drive has decreased yet the road toll keeps going up every year more than the last funny that anyway you definitely have my vote cheers
