Fith part of the series on tthe War of drugs: The failing Drug War in Berlin.

[Something completely different]

This is the last article in the 5 part series.

It shows, by giving the example of Berlin, how current drug policies are failing to be inforced substancialy on the streets by police and the justice system.

The article also calls for a rethinking of the current drug policcies.

Interesting. I had no idea how Orwellian Germans are nor did I expect the creative ways Citizens defeat these measures.

I'm fairly certain Mr. Lutz felt like a big man to bust a painter and his girlfriend for 0.75 grams.

I agree with Mr. Lutz on stopping the "rots your insides out" drug from Eastern Europe. It's probably Krokodil (desomorphine), which users often live less than a year on due to massive impurities.

Drugs with abject and extremely unsafe effects should be seized.
