For the Right of Getting High in Brazil

 For 
        the Right of Getting High in Brazil

Should
drug consumption be made legal in Brazil? Many Brazilian
leaders, including judges, are in favor of such legalization.
They believe that the more repression against drugs there is,
the more Brazilians will be subject to violence and crime. According
to them, the blame for narcotrafficking should be put on the law.
