End the tax-wasting, rights-violating, and little old lady and dog-killing War on Drugs.

The only reason drugs were ever made illegal was a sop to the Bronfmann family - who owned Seagrams and gave tons of money to Roosevelt’s campaign in 1932 - by FDR when he promised to see Prohibition repealed in 1932.

That was too much competition for Seagrams, Inc. after booze was legal again.

It never fails to amaze me how people who call themselves conservatives are in reality a bunch of authoritarian statists at heart.

Agree. This is but one of many reasons why I'm neither Left nor Right (nor Independent) - (imo) both (all) sides suffer various 'socio-psychopathologies,' each in their own way.

for the most part i agree with you, and as far as i know, REEFER MADNESS was paid for by the ABA(American Brewers Association) but my statement still stands, if people are getting legal narcotics illegally let alone for sale, i do not believe the HIPPA act covers them from prosecution... and any additional signing away of rights are not required
