Topic: Drug free in the Philippines - page 48. (Read 77887 times)

The war on drugs is indeed a scam. It is a scam in the US, it is a scam in Mexico, and it is a scam in the Philippines. And I don't know how you can claim that the country is doing well, when thousands of poor people are getting executed in the public by vigilante gangs.

in our place theres a lot of drug user before. But when the newly elected president was on his place. Some of the drug users has gone. Some of them stops using some of them goes to rehabilitation but some has died, im not saying that they died because of drugs but you know what happened to them.

Do you think that War on drugs is scam I dont know where do you get that information dude.And about the Philippines War on Drugs I dont know where do you get that information again I think you read it only from the bias media and you didn't see in your own eyes.Because of the newly elected President of Philippines( our country ) I see that our country is going well

I think some people do it and cover it by vigilanteism. They might seem to be doing good, but we will never know their real mission behind the killings. I hope that the people killed deserved it, but I don't support that kind of killings, life has to mean something, and maybe, just maybe, there's hope that they can recover. It's not an answer to the drug problem, but that's the way they are doing it. Just pray for the people that need to realize the evils they are doing to the Filipino society, the lack of knowledge of God affects everyone, especially the innocent people.

The vigilante thing might be kinda extreme, but maybe also a necessary evil. AFAIK Duterte gave drugdealers a period in which they could voluntarily give themselves up to the police to serve jail and start life over. They didnt choose to so they now face the consequences.

It depends on the country and if applied in the Philippines, it will just make things worst. If you lived in the Philippines you will know the feeling of having lots of shit drug users around you prior to Duterte administration.


I can't take that statement as a reasonable one.


Give me a reference where all killings are made by police operations led by the National Police. Don't ever blamed the president on what is happening now. Years before he was elected, his main agenda is war on drugs and describe what will be the output if he was elected and yet majority of the nation voted him. Does it make sense how worst drug problems here in the PH? If ever there is another way to solve this, why those previous fucking administration didn't do nothing"



Like what? It's easy to say.

I'm not sure about Russia. But as you see, Chinese people have major investments in the Philippines. I do believe that China is funding Duterte. This is a win-win for the both of them.

China and Russia are very supportive to the Philippines for the campaign againsy drugs so I think they will keep their promise. They giving duterte money at the same time they can profit with that money.

Given this, I still don't think it would be an easy transition. And we all do not know how long will it take for people to get use to this. Or how long till the people go against this and protest.

DRUG FREE WORLD DOESN'T EXIST! FORGET THE PROPAGANDA!

You have to educate people not to prosecute them. Drugs have to be legalized, controlled and taxed. There has to be freely accessible help to treat addiction and dangerous human behavior.

Our specie is drug dependent. Medicine, coffee, sugar other toxic and not toxic food and non food additives. We love every drug and substance use.

Addiction is not the drug problem it is a human life condition.  
In Vietnam vs USA war there were a lot of soldiers heroin addicts. Usa was afraid that when they come home, there will be a lot of junkies (homeless degenerate addicted to heroin etc.). But truth was that when soldiers came home they all drooped this habit which was just a substitute to family and other social bonding pleasures.

Problem with drugs is that it is prohibited and made dangerous for people who have bad social life and other misfortunes. Who became addicts when they substituted social bonding with a drug use.

You can recreational use almost every drug until your social life with family and friends and love ones is top notch. When something happens bad than recreational drug use shits spins of the road to a trash bin of addiction which becomes substitution for social bondings.

Philippines president is a retard.
To prosecute a man to death for a drug activities and use is a retardness of intellectual immaturity.  That is just ridiculous and unacceptable by the most intellectual westerners. To prosecute your society member which was grown by it investing substantial recourses of time, food, money etc. is a move of intellectually immature society.

This War on Drug is a SCAM, nothing more nothing less. There are a lot of ways how to approach this problem intellectually but our world politicians are manipulative dolls. And our society still computes in stone age brain wave lengths.

The number of deaths from drug overdose declined sharply in Portugal, after the drugs were legalized. Drug dealers vanished, as the drugs became available from government-approved shops. Drug dealers can exist only if the drugs are illegal.

VERY POOR AND THE STATE HAS NO MONEY where do you get that information.You didn't know that Philippines is one of the fastest growing economy in asia.Show me your proof that Philippines has no money.

And what good has brought the legalization of drugs in these countries? Any action should benefit. The legalization of drugs could make life easier for drug dealers and possibly bring some revenue to the Treasury. People will only mount.

It has worked in Portugal and Uruguay without any issues to the neighboring countries. There was no mass influx of drug addicts in to Portugal from Spain. Now Spain is also considering drug legalization.

Its just a promise? after Duterte visit from China was able to get an amount of $24B from China.

I wonder who will buy medicine to give them for free? In the Philippines people are very poor and the state has no money. You seriously think that China and Russia will give Duterte so much money? It's just a beautiful promise.

Drug free Philippines is actually a good thing because that social vice alone has earned the country a bad reputation in the world which is nothing to write home about. However, the way the government is going about it might actually defeat the purpose of this campaign because of what is being reported in the news. This could bed the work if distractors who are profiting from this anomaly but I expect government to be more strategic in fighting this battle in the sense that it should have been reorientation campaign rather than force all the way.

He might be effective, but when you use the same methods as the criminals then you are no better than them....

Well here's another thought. While drug realization might inspire good things to some countries, some others surely would not. One instance, what if it's prohibited to its neighbor country. Then the country who has legalized it will be the exchange point for the others.

Drug legalization has positive results everywhere it was implemented. Why don't you study the after-effects of the drug legalization in Portugal? There was a sharp decline in crime and deaths from drug overdose. And within a few years, the number of drug users also started to decline.
