Pope Francis calls liberalization of drugs laws a ‘fantasy’ and brands traffickers as ‘murderers’
Fox News
Pope Francis offered a strong condemnation of liberal drug laws, calling them a "fantasy" and labeling traffickers as "murderers" during recent lessons.
"A reduction in drug addiction is not achieved by liberalizing drug use, as has been proposed, or already implemented, in some countries," he said. "This is a fantasy. You liberalize, they just consume more." Nikolas Lanum is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.
Francis said he was convinced it is a "moral duty" to end the trafficking and production of "dangerous substances."
