Still bringing up Anslinger. Your side just can't let him go, can you?

I really don't care what he did and said back in 1937. You might as well try to start an argument about how slavery was wrong. Neither are relevant to today's laws.

Congress passed the Controlled Substances Act in 1970 which made marijuana illegal. The Act said nothing about Anslinger, white women or Negro jazz musicians. Give it a rest already.

And when confronted with the Act's actual findings, they fall mute.
