9. No Illegal Drugs


With Canada and many US states in various stages of legalizing cannabis, it may seem that they are the leaders in transforming the so-called War On Drugs. The Netherlands is famous for its coffee shops and liberal attitude toward marijuana. But when it comes to hard drugs, many are surprised to learn that another European country leads the way in tolerant attitudes: Portugal.

Portugal decriminalized all drug use in 2001. Yes, all drugs! Even heroin and cocaine. Portugal decided to take a somewhat unique approach to drug use—treating it as a public health issue rather than a criminal one.

Since doing so, Portugal has one of the lowest death rates due to fatal overdose when compared to the rest of Europe. Portugal has a barely registering rate of only 3 deaths per million as opposed to 44.6 in the UK and an EU-wide average of 17.3. While it would be unwise to assume that this could be the only factor for such a low rate in Portugal, it does make an interesting case to behold.
This News is probably beong furthered by an ultra liberal American who most likely believes in transgender and all types of perverted behaviors.
Satan at work.
