If you're not allowing countries to send people to jail for drugs, then isn't that basically making it legal?
I know that it's not making it totally legal, but if you don't put them in jail, then your only options are fines and the death penalty. Why just specify no jail time? I could be misunderstanding the point of the proposal here but I don't understand why you wouldn't allow jail but you would allow the death penalty.
