The creation of designer drugs is outpacing the ability of society to enact laws to prohibit them. Many of these substances have negative side effects, ranging from violent behavior to death. Which of the following responses to the problem would best fit the due-process philosophy?

Pass legislation and increase enforcement efforts to send a message of zero tolerance to those who manufacture, sell, and use designer drugs

The creation of "designer drugs" is outpacing the ability of society to enact laws to prohibit them.  Many of these substances have negative side effects, ranging from violent behavior to death.

40.  Which of the following responses to the problem would best fit the "crime control" philosophy?

a.  Government takes steps to limit the availability of ingredients used in the manufacture of designer drugs.

b.  Design a public awareness campaign to warn potential users of the dangers presented by use of these drugs.

c.  Partner with community leaders to identify underlying social issues promoting the drug subculture.

d.  Pass legislation and increase enforcement efforts to send a message of "zero tolerance" to those who manufacture, sell, and use designer drugs

The answer to the above question is

d.  Pass legislation and increase enforcement efforts to send a message of "zero tolerance" to those who manufacture, sell, and use designer drugs

Explanation:

State governments, naturally provide early response to the domestic issue of designer drug abuse than the federal government through the early banning of synthetic drug use.

State legislation on restricting designer drug use can be defined into three groups including

1. Specific synthetic substance ban

2. Ban on generic language

3. Ban based on the effect a substance has on the body.

It can be clearly demonstrated that legislation which combines this three categories is highly effective in reducing the supply and use of designer drugs.
