Sweden has very hard laws prohibiting narcotics and steroids. There is also almost no debate in about the possibility of legalizing drugs such as marihuana for medical use ether. Enforcement of the laws varies form of widespread drug testing, and penalties ranging from rehabilitation treatment, fines, and up to a 10-year in prison. Also a report by the UNODC lauded Sweden for having one of the lowest drug usage rates in the western world, however According to the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction in 2005 the rate of drug-related deaths per capita in Sweden was more than twice that of the Netherlands.
However I don’t agree with Sweden’s drug laws, I believe that marijuana should be legal both fore recreational and medical use, but when it comes to heavier narcotics my thoughts are thorn… if it were legal it would take a lot of the funding away from criminal organizations, but it could increase the abuse. And even thou Sweden see itself as a country in the forefront on the fight on drugs, I know a lot of people have tried illegal drugs and almost everyone know how to get drugs.
