Cannabis I can understand but Cocaine and Heroin?... Ain't those two really bad and doesn't actually provide any benefits?

Decriminalisation =/= "we really think this a great thing"

This move is a simple calculation of police hours and jail costs saved, and health improvements due to current users becoming trackable and using in safe environments, and reduction in organised crime vs the benefits of it being illegal.

THIS !  Well said Soleron.
