Surely those numbers have nothing to do with policing or the justice system.

Taking this in isolation from the rest of the thread, you have to at least look at what those numbers relate to: do the offences include stealing to fund a habit, violent crimes too, etc. What is breakdown of user/dealer offences? Misdemeanour crimes or more serious?

May be a similar story when you do dig deeper, but these numbers are in this format not proving what you want them to prove.
