Nowhere in that article does it say crime has dropped loads, although logic says if youre not arresting people for posession and dealing then drug arrests are bound to go down. It still doesnt tackle the crimes commited in order to supplement their drug use.
The heroin is free if legal, like a prescription. Heroin is cheap really and wouldn't cost a lot for a government to buy and you make massive savings with police, hospitals etc. The war on drugs has been a massive failure.
