Yes, most people think that the punishment is excessive but only with such a way can we send the message over to those traffickers that we really mean business.

I agree that our laws are harsh but by comparing it to the Taliban reigme is way overboard as I believe most of our laws are similar to britain except the death penalty and chewing gum ban etc. And because of our laws I can walk home in the middle of the night without fear of being mug or anything.

I don't think Japan is that drug free as for Korea I am not too sure but one think is certain they are no where near the Golden Triangle.

We value life more then anything that's why we have such harsh punishment on drug traffickers.
