Oregon Decriminalizes 'Personal Use' Amounts of Hard Drugs, Including Heroin, Meth, Cocaine

On Election Day, Oregon voters approved a measure to decriminalize the possession of small amounts of drugs—any drugs. Measure 110 made it legal to carry “personal use” amounts of Schedule I drugs, including heroin, meth, cocaine, and MDMA. It also directs the Oregon Health Authority to use some of the cannabis tax revenue for the creation of drug treatment programs.

Portland parents wanting to take their kids to park playgrounds are going to have use metal detectors and yard rakes to look for discarded used needles before allowing their kids to play ... just like SF parents should.

What is wrong with these people??!!  The voters who passed this awfulness, not the poor parents who will have to use metal detectors.  Perhaps Oregon can provide metal detectors? Nuts!!!

You'll have every druggie in the country move to Oregon... are these people idiots?

[Idiot]

Yes....they are idiots.

And they'll be bitching and moaning about all the cretins from California moving in never comprehending that they are inviting the homeless, drug addicted and criminals by their own actions. Having read this it just reinforces my decision to avoid this once inviting and beautiful state.

This is what mental illness looks like when you go full libtard.

[Fishrrman]

Oregon -- looks like a state that will NEVER be "coming back into the fold".

But... look ahead. Once the communists gain FULL control, they aren't going to put up with the druggie non-producers for very long...

If only all the druggies and leftist whackjobs moved out of their current abodes and settled in Oregon, Washington and California - and the few sane, conservative people in those three states moved eastward - what a wonderful world it would be. The left-coasters could sit around and get stoned, have the occasional riot and just rot away.

They are hardcore democrats determined to bring this nation to ruin.  Should Biden rule, you will promptly see just how true this is.  Soros wants some return on his investments, legalizing drugs will give him a huge economic boost.

[LegalAmerican]

Yeah it will STAY...at" small amounts of drugs."  Especially. when ONE IS AN ADDICT!  /s
"PERSONAL USE'...addicts won't share drugs or needles?   TOTAL INSANITY.  OPIAN DENS IN CHINA.

I always enjoy a debate regarding the war on drugs. There are pros and cons on both sides. However, I have seen what even a small amount of heroin and meth does to people

Portland needs to be made its own island.

That’s because progressives make decisions based  on their feelings and not with  thinking and consequences

Where democrats reign, hell follows.  Sooner or later due recompense also follows with a vengeance.  No police, all drugs legal, shut down the military, jobs and treasury shipped out of the Country, even a grade school student can see where this ends.  When you stand idly by, don't call on God, you had your chance to stand up for/with Him.

That's basically what the folks in Amsterdam lamented, when all of Europe's stoners converged on Amsterdam.

With democrats convinced they won the election, prematurely.  Democrats are,ahead of their time, accelerating the destruction of America.  After all they stole the election fair and square,and the American people let them.  This is a nation in life and death throes, and the democrats are playing DR.Kevorkian.
