亲爱的朋友们,
72小时候后,一组有影响力的国家领导人将要求联合国结束毒品战争政策,采另外的规定。但是,政治家们说公众将不会支持别的毒品政策。那么,让我们支持这一特别的机会并采取紧急行动。请在下面的呼吁签名,并告诉你身边的每一个人加入。
72小时以后,我们将最终看到'毒品战争'将要结束的开端。这一昂贵的战争没有帮助解决任何成瘾者的痛苦,然而它耗尽了无数的生命,摧毁了很多的社群,并且将数亿的资金'葬送'给了有组织的犯罪网络。
所有的专家都同意最有效的毒品政策是规范化,但是政治家却害怕接手这一问题。几天后,一个全球委员会包括联合国,欧盟,美国,巴西,墨西哥以及更多前外交部长们将打破这一禁忌,并公开地呼吁新的毒品政策包括毒品无罪化以及毒品规范化。
如果有足够的人能支持结束这一疯狂的政策――这将会是一个这一代人的一生只能碰见一次的历史机遇。政治家们说,毒品战争失败了,但是公众并没有准备好更好的选择。让我们证明给他们,我们不仅可以接受更为人性的政策―我们更加要求这样的政策。请点击以下的链接,支持我们的这一呼吁,并告诉每一个人!当我们的签名人数达到500000时,我们将会专人将这一呼吁递交给全球委员会的各国领导人:

在过去的50年里,现行的毒品政策已全面失败,但是公众讨论却依然陷于恐惧和错误的信息的泥泞之中。每一个人,甚至联合国毒品和犯罪问题办公室,负责致力于实施这一措施的也同意---部署武装力量和警察烧毁种植毒品的农庄,追捕毒贩以及监禁毒品贩子和成瘾者,是一个昂贵的错误。而伴随着这一巨大的人力代价---从阿富汗到墨西哥,美国,非法毒品走私正在摧毁世界各地的国家,而成瘾,过量服药死亡,以及艾滋病感染者的人数却在持续增长。
然而,那些像瑞士,葡萄牙,荷兰以及澳大利亚没有实施那么严酷的毒品政策的国家,并没有出现如支持毒品战争政策者所预料的大量毒品滥用。反而,他们却看见了与毒品相关的犯罪,成瘾人数,死亡人数的明显下降,这样他们就能够专注于摧毁犯罪集团。
有力的游说依旧是实现改变的阻力,包括军队,司法以及监狱部门,而这些部门的预算正面临危机。政治家害怕如果他们支持别的解决方案,选民将会把他们赶出办公室,因为他们将在法律和秩序方面显得非常脆弱。但是,很多前国家药监部门的官员,将在他们离职之时,都出来支持改革,而民意调查显示全球范围内很多公民都是到现行的(毒品)政策是一个灾难。各方推动新政策的改革势力聚到一起,特别是那些受毒品交易严重损坏的改革势力。
如果在接下来的72小时内,我们能收集足够的抗议声来支持全球委员会关于毒品的大胆政策,我们能够击败对于保持现状的陈腐借口。我们的声音将会成为实现政策改变的关键---请签名并支持我们的呼吁并告诉更多的人---
http://www.avaaz.org/en/end_the_war_on_drugs/?vl
我们有机会结束这一摧毁数亿计生命的残酷'战争'。全球的公众的观点将决定这一灾难将会停止或者政治家将会避免改革。让我们紧急联合起来推动我们犹豫得领导人不要再怀疑,恐惧,并说服他们。
怀着希望与坚毅,
Alice, Laura, Ricken, Maria Paz, Shibayan 以及整这个Avaaz 团队

Dear friends,
In 72 hours, a group of powerful world leaders will ask the UN to end the war on drugs and move towards regulation. But politicians say that the public will not support alternative drug policies. Let's give this unique opportunity massive public support and get urgent action. Sign below, and tell everyone: |
Experts all agree that the most sensible policy is to regulate, but politicians are afraid to touch the issue. In days, a global commission including former heads of state and foreign policy chiefs of the UN, EU, US, Brazil, Mexico and more will break the taboo and publicly call for new approaches including decriminalization and regulation of drugs.
This could be a once-in-a-generation tipping-point moment -- if enough of us call for an end to this madness. Politicians say they understand that the war on drugs has failed, but claim the public isn't ready for an alternative. Let's show them we not only accept a sane and humane policy -- we demand it. Click below to sign the petition and share with everyone -- when we reach 1/2 million voices, it will be personally delivered to world leaders by the global commission:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/end_the_war_on_drugs/?vl
For 50 years current drug policies have failed everyone, everywhere but public debate is stuck in the mud of fear and misinformation. Everyone, even the UN Office on Drugs and Crime which is responsible for enforcing this approach agrees -- deploying militaries and police to burn drug farms, hunting down traffickers, and imprisoning dealers and addicts � is an expensive mistake. And with massive human cost -- from Afghanistan, to Mexico, to the USA the illegal drug trade is destroying countries around the world, while addiction, overdose deaths, and HIV/AIDS infections continue to rise.
Meanwhile, countries with less-harsh enforcement -- like Switzerland, Portugal, the Netherlands, and Australia -- have not seen the explosion in drug use that proponents of the drug war have darkly predicted. Instead, they have seen significant reductions in drug-related crime, addiction and deaths, and are able to focus squarely on dismantling criminal empires.
Powerful lobbies still stand in the way of change, including military, law enforcement, and prison departments whose budgets are at stake. And politicians fear that voters will throw them out of office if they support alternative approaches, as they will appear weak on law and order. But many former drugs Ministers and Heads of State have come out in favour of reform since leaving office, and polls show that citizens across the world know the current approach is a catastrophe. Momentum is gathering towards new improved policies, particularly in regions that are ravaged by the drug trade.
If we can create a worldwide outcry in the next 72 hours to support the bold calls of the Global Commission on Drug Policy, we can overpower the stale excuses for the status quo. Our voices hold the key to change -- Sign the petition and spread the word:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/end_the_war_on_drugs/?vl
We have a chance to enter the closing chapter of this brutal 'war' that has destroyed millions of lives. Global public opinion will determine if this catastrophic policy is stopped or if politicians shy away from reform. Let's rally urgently to push our hesitating leaders from doubt and fear, over the edge, and into reason.
With hope and determination,
Alice, Laura, Ricken, Maria Paz, Shibayan and the whole Avaaz team
