Talk:Drug prohibition

message: Formal request has been received to merge: Drug possession into Prohibition of drugs; dated: July 2021. Proposer's Rationale: I propose to merge this article into Prohibition of drugs. I think that the content in the Drug possession article can very easily be explained in the context of Drug law, and that article is of a reasonable size that the merging of Prohibition of drugs will not cause any problems as far as article size is concerned. ––FormalDude.

replies: text: I've blanked and redirected the page. There honestly wasn't any content on Drug possession that is not already covered in more depth here. ––FormalDude talk (please notify me  on reply) 04:16, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
thread_title: Merger proposal

message: The War on Drugs has stimulated the creation of international law enforcement agencies (such as Interpol), mostly in Western countries.  This has occurred because a large volume of illicit drugs come from Third-World countries.
No doubt it has, but not Interpol.
According to that page the predecessor to Interpol was the  Police Union of German States in 1851, concentrating on politicals and criminals, when apart from religious puritans most people didn't care about opposing drug-taking: after some false starts, the ICPC was founded in 1923, and post war when the Nazi leadership of that were cleared out, the ICPO in 1946.  Undoubtedly thanks to the American starting, and forcing, of the Anti-Drug cause in the early 20th century, the personnel in 1923 were increasing involved with opiates under the League of Nations, probably a lot more with financial crooks and petty criminals:  in no way was it the result of the old Anti-Drug initiatives, let alone the modern American War on Drugs.
