No, they should be opened in empty rural areas so all the addicts can go there and leave the rest of us alone

No, there should be a focus on rehabilitation and getting rid of addictions, not encouraging and enabling them.

 @9YHHVQNanswered…3mos3MO

No and yes at the same time there are pros and cons but recreational drug usage should not be legalised nor normalised

No. Addiction, including drug abuse, is a medical condition/ health concern and should be treated as such through the health care system and rehabilitation centres, as it already is.

 @9VRCPVHanswered…4mos4MO

Yes but only when used to curb addiction and rehabilitate people not as a long term place to continue addiction.
