      This implies they’re a utopia and not a rich-people-only dystopia.

      Is the bigger picture murdering people consuming cannabis?

          Murder is acceptable if petty thefts are reduced? So the worth of a human life is roughly $200 - $2000, or the worth of a laptop?

          If the only way to stop petty thefts is murder, petty theft cannot be prevented ethically.

              Sending the message that money is more important than the lives of people, alright.

              I’m happy to live in a country where this kind of ““justice”” system is impossible to implement legally.

          The death penalty for drugs is a worthy sacrifice considering the extremely positive societal outcome.

          “It’s good that we kill someone for smoking a joint because no one stole my laptop!” You have fucked up priorities.

                  Virtually every country on Earth except Singapore doesn’t execute people for such spurious reasons. Do you think Finland is a crime-ridden hellhole?
