Drugs

Portland does an about face on drugs. Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek signed a bill Monday restoring criminal penalties for possessing small amounts of hard drugs, reversing a first in the nation law that advocates had hoped would help quell a deepening addition and overdose crisis. Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler said it was a mistake to decriminalize drugs. How many people were hurt during this time. How many people left and how many businesses were harmed. This is much like the new ways of teaching kids that were tried in the past. In the end the experts say it didn't work but what happened to the students who were used as guinea pigs.
