Plenty of Western countries are in the process of adopting or have adopted more progressive decriminalization/legalization based approaches to drug policy. The various grassroot movements around the world to liberalize drug laws are the loudest and most prominent they've ever been. Viral videos with everyone from respected scientists and government agents right down to cultural figures like Richard Branson and Morgan Freeman are calling for a loosening of the drug laws and are being seen by millions of people on the internet. The governments own former chair for the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs has set up an independent research body and is calling for a relaxing of drug laws. Two U.S. states have fully legalized personal possession of Cannabis with more states to follow. Comedians and actors are talking openly about the reverential, eye opening experiences they've had with LSD and DMT. Responsible recreational drug use is at it's most accepted, understood point in the prohibition age of human history.
It's all around you and it's growing every day. It's called a paradigm shift. Even the most ardent prohibitionists who are actually well read on this topic would have to begrudgingly agree that prohibition is slowly shedding it's skin.
It's a war on some people who use some drugs and it can't be won.
