What is your view of soft drugs?

I have never been in favour of the legalisation of soft or hard drugs. However, I do recognise that the change of classification of cannabis may have a beneficial effect on policing the issue.

This is an issue that is finely balanced. I can understand the arguments about de criminalisation, but have always felt on balance that it is best not to encourage any use of drugs - soft or hard.
