Yes.

Making drugs illegal doesn't stop use. It just makes it essentially impossible to know you're getting a clean supply that isn't laced with something else, or accidentally 100x as strong and it kills you. Plus it does nothing to address why these people felt the need to turn to these highly addictive and deadly drugs. If anything it makes the problem worse.
