The people riot because of the war on drugs and the growing police state that comes from it; not because the streets are flooded by illegal drugs.

Not sure what you are talking about here. Do you know what opiates do to people when they are high? They aren't exactly violent people. Most can't even keep their eyes open.
You MAY have had a point if we were talking about stimulants like coc aine, but I fail to see how an opiate epidemic would lead to more violent rioters.

The first reply is a nice little irrelevant deflection from the truth...
Guessing JIM that you don't know that Heroin production from Afghanistan became the number 1 worldwide after the illegal invasion.
Don't bury your head in the sand...
They need that space to fertilise the Opium plants.
Afghanistan has been the greatest illicit opium producer in the entire world, ahead of Burma (Myanmar), the "Golden Triangle", and Latin America since 1992,

I thought they went hidden hand in hand
