urther cementing itself as a haven for liberalism, residents of the state of Oregon have voted to legalize hard drugs like cocaine, heroin, and meth. Around 60% of the state residents have voted to decriminalize the possession of “non-commercial” amounts of the drugs. That means users will be allowed to roam the cities within the state freely and be allowed to use drugs out in the open without having to fear that they will be arrested.

Those who will be caught with the specified amount may face a fine, but the fine has just been set at $100, and even that can be avoided once a person chooses to undergo a health assessment.

“Oregon made history tonight by becoming the first state to decriminalize drug possession!,” the Drug Policy Alliance tweeted Tuesday.“Our c4 @DrugPolicyAct led this campaign with @voteYESon110 to make this visionary initiative a reality! This victory is truly transformative,”

Several states have voted to decriminalize marijuana and hallucinogenic mushrooms but this is the first time that a state has voted to legalize hard drugs like heroin. There’s a good argument for the legalization of substances like marijuana and hallucinogenic mushrooms because they don’t cause any long-term harm to their users. It is also still in doubt if they are actually addictive but hard drugs like meth and heroin are very harmful and highly addictive. Decriminalizing their possession would be inviting addicts from all over the country to converge in Oregon.

Residents of the state can expect the crime rate in their towns and cities to skyrocket once they become flooded with junkies who have to find a way to pay for their drugs. While some countries have experienced some measures of success with decriminalizing drugs, it is yet to be seen what it will do in such a large area in the United States.

In some left-wing cities, drug use is already tolerated by the city officials. Cities like Seattle and San Francisco are overrun by drug addicts who use drugs out in the open while the police do nothing to stop them.
