The war on drugs has never and will never stop me or anyone from using drugs. It will only keep the drugs on the streets where they are more dangerous, and it will keep the drug money in the hands of gangs and cartels.
Ever wondered why the war on drugs has been so costly and ineffective? In this episode of 'The Peace On Drugs', host Aaron Akulis and his guests dive into the harsh realities and widespread impacts of this ongoing conflict. They discuss how militarized police forces, skyrocketing addiction rates, and overdose deaths have all been exacerbated by current drug policies.
But it's not all doom and gloom; the conversation also highlights the shifting public perception as more states move towards legalizing cannabis and decriminalizing psychedelics for personal use. Aaron and his guests don't just stop at the problems; they offer a glimpse of hope by sharing practical advice on how to seek help for addiction. They also delve into the transformative benefits of psychedelics, from easing PTSD symptoms to providing comfort for those facing end-of-life anxiety.
This episode is a compelling mix of hard truths and hopeful solutions, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by issues of addiction or interested in drug policy reform. Tune in to understand how we can move from a punitive approach to one rooted in compassion and effectiveness.
