Details are not important at the moment, a change is important, even the Public Health Agency in Sweden agrees that drugs should be decriminalized here. Its the politicians that are unwilling to budge. Imo, the state should regulate drugs like they do with alcohol and by the way decriminalization doesnt mean that you should be able to sell cocaine in the grocery store. Legalization and decriminalization are the not same thing.

@Carl-Richard @Baum The important thing is to get the drugs out of the hands of criminals or by making it legal to get the competition from being unhealthy Red to healthy Orange, so they dont need to shoot eachother over drug deals.

"President's bullet-ridden body in the street Ride, Johnny ride Kennedy's shattered head hits concrete Ride, Johnny ride Johnny's wife is floundering Johnny's wife is scared Run, Jackie run Texas is an outrage when your husband is dead Texas is an outrage when they pick up his head Texas is the reason that the president's dead You gotta suck, suck, Jackie suck President's bullet-ridden body in the street Ride, Johnny ride Kennedy's shattered head hits concrete Ride, Johnny ride Texas is an outrage when your husband is dead Texas is an outrage when they pick up his head Texas is the reason that the president's dead You gotta suck, suck, Jackie suck Arise Jackie O, Jonathon of Kennedy Well, arise and be shot down The dirt's gonna be your dessert My cum be your life source And the only way to get it Is to suck or fuck Or be poor and devoid And masturbate me, masturbate me Then slurp it from your palm Like a dry desert soaking up rain Soaking up sun Like a dry desert soaking up rain Soaking up sun"

?? Damn! Thats a half-marathon! Why did you stop? 20km is quite excessive though, I will probably reach for 10k and then not push the mileage more than that.

I mostly do these threads to exercise my holistic thinking but yeah I agree.

Can we close this thread now haha, yall are getting so riled up. The case is over.

Wow thats a long time! I have been terrible at exercise my whole life, only last year did I start running a bit and now more seriously this year. I run around a lake thats about 4 km long, pretty perfect spot if you ask me.

@DocWatts Where did you find that pic? Its very useful.

If I knew that I would be forever happy.

The struggle to survive as an ego is always suffering, sometimes macro but always on a micro-level. Im being very broad with my interpretation of suffering here. Try to sit completely still for 10 minutes without moving. Youll start to micro-suffer very quickly.

"The road that leads to you"

Life is suffering.

We all fall off track, just get back up on that horse, dont beat yourself up, love yourself, throw away any weed you still have and remove dealer numbers or any darkweb passwords etc.

This is exactly what I have been trying to articulate for the past two days. Good post!

Very interesting read. Thanks!

Using the Leverage Points by Donella Meadows from weak change to strongest change. 7. Create harsher sentencing but this doesnt solve the problem at the root, it merely puts a bandaid on it. 6. Seizing illegal weapons and drugs especially coming over Öresunds bridge and from Balkan. Doesnt solve the problem at the root it only creates a minor change. 5. Make gang communication more difficult. Use wiretapping and create strong neighbour watches. Quite difficult because information flows are usually very hidden. 4. Decriminalize all drugs. This one is huge but the Swedish government zero tolerance policy makes none of the politicians even want to bring up the issue for fear of becoming a black sheep. 3. Improve integration and improve neighbours, give inhabitants a feeling of having an economic future and not feel like outsiders. Very important but takes a long time and requires a big structural change, violence will continue for a while until the system is restructured. 2. Incentivize gang members to make money legally instead of illegally. Very difficult. 1. Make gang members realize crime doesnt pay by changing the paradigm, get them from RED to BLUE, almost impossible.

Thats a really good one but quite difficult and takes a long time, but its obviously important. @PurpleTree I meant as in blaming immigrants as if there is something inherently wrong with them rather than a circumstantial issue. Of course the trauma that comes with fleeing from war torn countries has to be taken into account.

So now theres a legal loophole for murder in the US, very interesting.

Whats excessive in your opinion? What should the rate be?

1. Its a crime. 2. It harms society by straining the budget for public spending.

Lets start by treating all humans on the planet fairly then we can start worrying about the emotional life of plants.
