Out of the 20%, only a small portion are nonviolent Netherlands doesn't allow open illegal drug trade and open use with people dying in the streets.

No 20# of incarcerated individuals are in jail or prison for drug crimes only. 80% are in prison for violent or property crimes. You are misinformed.

Drug offenses still account for the incarceration of almost half a million people, and nonviolent drug convictions remain a defining feature of the federal prison system. Police still make over 1 million drug possession arrests each year,many of which lead to prison sentences.

Drug arrests continue to give residents of over-policed communities criminal records, hurting their employment prospects and increasing the likelihood of longer sentences for any future offenses.

Citation? We've provided reference to national authorities stating that more than 20% of our incarcerated are there for drugs alone. Like our sfda prosecutes drug sales on. A daily basis. The drug was is an abysmal failure, overdoses are worse here because of prohibition.

In the above chart violence, property crime have their own categories. We incarcerate more for drugs than any other first world country does cumulatively, it has increased availability, addiction, overdoses, and violence in our community.
