Conservatism

Strongly agree

Yes, but only for drug dealers, not users

This answer aligns with the conservative ideology of law and order while also acknowledging the need for a more nuanced approach to drug-related offenses. Many conservatives support harsher penalties for drug dealers, who they view as the primary drivers of the drug problem, while advocating for treatment and rehabilitation for users. This stance can be seen in recent criminal justice reform efforts, such as the First Step Act, which was supported by many conservatives and aimed to reduce mandatory minimum sentences for non-violent drug offenses.

Agree

Yes

Conservatism generally supports law and order and strict punishment for criminal offenses. Historically, conservatives have been more likely to support mandatory minimum sentences for drug possession, as seen in the 1980s and 1990s with the 'War on Drugs' and the implementation of mandatory minimums under the Reagan administration. However, in recent years, some conservatives have shifted towards a more lenient stance on drug possession, focusing on rehabilitation and treatment rather than strict punishment.

Disagree

No

Conservatism typically does not support leniency for criminal offenses, especially drug-related crimes. However, as mentioned earlier, some conservatives have shifted their stance on drug possession in recent years, advocating for rehabilitation and treatment instead of mandatory minimum sentences. This shift is not yet widespread within the conservative movement, so the score remains negative.
