Shocking news! Well not really.
If you want/need money quickly and have no morals there's nothing better than selling dope.

As one who deals daily in the WOD (former prosecutor of 14 years, defense attorney of 9 years), I find Walters' remarks insulting. The link between oil and terrorism is a hundredfold stronger than any link between illegal drugs and terrorism. The same can be said for state sponsorship of terrorism than it can be for drug selling.

A little over a month ago Ashcroft approved a 7 year sentence for a Michigan man who plea bargained an aid to terrorism charge. Yet he has directed U.S. Attorneys to seek maximum charges in drug cases, do no fact bargaining and to report any downward departure sentencing decisions so as to pressure the formerly independent judiciary to fall in line with his zero tolerance view of sentencing.

I have seen twenty year old addict sellers get three times the sentence of this terrorist. Sickening.

The WOD is little more than an excuse to empower the imperial federal government and is a law enforcement welfare program; more federal agents, more prosecutors, more parole officers, more prisons, more prison guards; ad nauseum.

"I believe that violence and terror are associated with drug trade," Mr. Walters said

Of course---drug criminalization makes the drug trade highly profitable.

Defund violence and terror---relegalize drugs!

Walters links drugs to terrorism

As a matter of fact, yes, he does.
