The war on drugs has failed miserably and simply lead to an increase in gang-related violence.

It would be far safer to legalise drugs so a user is safe in the knowledge they're getting what they pay for (unlike with gang-controlled drugs), regulate the shit out of them to reduce the likelihood of addiction and educate people from a young age to the dangers. They can also set relatively high taxes on drug-related products to help generate extra tax revenue instead of wasting money fighting cartels, catching drug gangs and keeping people in prison.
