Not Portuguese myself but my understanding is that since 2001 most drugs are decriminalised for possession (the rule is like 10 days’ worth or something) but they can still confiscate your drugs and levy fines in rare cases. These offences carry no criminal record and can never carry a sentence of incarceration. Basically kinda illegal but not really.
If only it was like in Portugal…
Or Switzerland
Or literally most western countries
Or no.
I couldn’t name another other than Portugal and Switzerland that have essentially decriminalised most drugs last I checked.
I was comparing to America
Which tbf is a really low bar (except for weed in some states. Still find that fascinating)
Why what you got over there?

Wow yeah no way that would fly in the USA. Prisons make too much money.
Guess what, it happened in Oregon! (it’s a trainwreck)
