Yes but if the drug policy was changed then it wouldn't be where the drug supply came from. If the law really wants to do something about organized crime the should legalize drugs and regulate them, it would stop far more crime than this would. That would cut at the source rather than just hitting a few individuals.

If law enforcement stopped using most of it's resources fighting a war on drugs they'd have plenty of resources to fight organized crime, and on top of this the crime syndicates would lose their main source of income.

This all comes down to a matter of opinion, whether or not the government should have more power. I think that they have far too much already and misuse it.
