So Ron Paul wants to end the war on drugs and stop arresting and ruining the lives of so many blacks, but he's a racist? And I'm supposed to believe this nonesense? Give me a break.
Sucks how right as the welfare state came in and broke up the family the drug war also got kicked into high gear so to arrest the now fatherless, lost children. Like it's all part of a big plot or something.
And yet the public still largely remains ignorant and thinks that ending the war on drugs and welfare is extremist and dangerous. The status quo position on every issue is bringing the country lower and lower and eating away at us from the core.
If my gov belives that i would be a drug addict if cocane was not eligal then why dont thay stop me from visiting any contry where its leagal. If the resone all these diferent drugs are against the law is because if they were not i would be adicted why does my gov give aid money to other contrys where some of these drugs are leagle , obiously these addicts are just going to spend the money on drugs , why are we paying for there drug habit ? .why are we using are money to hurt these people?.
Simple question ,do you want your gov to get tough on crime?. yes ?, good . Sign here this is a patition to make it a min 5 year sentance to be parked at a expiered parking meeter. What ?, are saying we should'nt be tough on criminals. The gov and police love the words crime and criminal , they youse that to paint you false pictures because you been brain washed from the time you were a little kid.
People have to wake the f--k up . How many people belive that its bad to be a criminal ?. Here in alberta canada it is againsed the law to leave my car running without locking the doors. Now lets say i had been convicted of this crime.should i be band from being a teacher?, no you say. Oh so then your in favor of "criminals in classrooms" ?
Stupid people need to ask themselves a question. Why should drugs be ilegal ?,is it because there bad for your health ?.if so why is it not ilegal to be obiese, that is the #1 health prob in north america. If drugs are ilegal because there bad for my health why is'nt a cheeseburger ilegal. The 3rd highest cause of death in north america is car accidents why is it not a fedral crime to cause a car accident, why no min jail sentence.
I feel sorry for Americans. ATTEMPTING to buy pot gets you arrested? LOL... you have to be physically in possession in most European countries, and even ten they'll probably give you a verbal or formal caution. That baiting shit is fucked up.

"We are winning the drug war" That DEA guy is a propaganda fool, just like Goebbles who repeatedly told the German population during ww2 that they were winning the war... Striking similarities isn't it?
See folks, this was all about going to jail to get locked up, and doing nothing there. No motel room, no freedom, no family, just jail. See, if drug would have been legalized, then we wouldn't have wasted our tax dollars to get drug users arrested. Do you agree?
@panzer903 so the drugs themselves and their side effects had absolutely nothing to do with it? nothing at all? so if tomorrow everybody lost all forms of common sense and good judgement and legalized every single drug for everybodys use there would be no bad parts of town? because thats what you said that they are created by "the facts that drugs are illegal." Are we & every other nation that enforces drug laws (practically all, i would imagine) that inept? i dnt thnk so.
@arivas713 the crime in those areas is directly related to the drug trade. watch the next parts of the video to see the countries that don't have as strict drug laws.
dumb bitch @6:08!!! no one told you to bring a child into that environment you retard!!! what, you didnt realize the bronx is a drug ridden cesspool of violence???? now, its the cops fault because you make her walk to school in the ghetto??? you should have your daughter removed for neglect!!!
INFRACTION OF FREEDOM! Adults are naturally free to govern their own bodies. This is a massive waste of money and resources. HEY COPS, FOCUS ON SEX TRAFFICKERS AND MURDERERS INSTEAD!!!!! what is happening to America?
America’s ‘War on Drugs’ is an utter failure, stripping citizens of their Constitutional Rights, illegaly seizing private property, and destroying families. Regardles of your values, you cannot deny the fact that prohibition does not, and has not ever worked.
I’m surprised more Democrats aren’t upset about this waste of resources, and it’s impact on the common citizen, compared to National security expenditures.
@hiredgun30 How many alchohol bootleggers and gangsters who sell alchohol exist?
None after prohibition was ended.
Apply your reason and you will see that the war on drugs and all the other wars, on terrorism, crime, poverty are a war on the people to take away our rights and increase the power of the government.
@hiredgun30 You might be right, It won't instantaneously turn criminals into good people, but it sure is a start. Just think about it, do you know how much money we would be saving if we stopped the war on drugs? Crazy amounts, so with this crazy amount of money why not improve impoverished areas, like improving school, etc. which will ultimately lessen crime. "Criminals" turn to crime because they have nothing else going for them, drugs are where the moneys at.
people think libertarians are all potheads, but really i would never do drugs even if they were legalized and im a libertarian. and even if i did i would only be hurting myself so what's the point. we just don't think the money to fight something that is an individual choice is well spent especially a losing fight.
@bojoben well okay i do, but what is your point. I am for legalizing drugs, and I guess technically alcohol is a drug, but lets say I wouldn't smoke pot snort coke or shoot heroin. But I don't care if others do it. so was I unclear or what? I'm not trying to be argumentative I would just like to truly understand your question so I can give a clear answer.
John Stossel is one of only a handful of journalists who truly deserve that title. He is a national treasure, with his "cut the BS" investigative reporting.
Free energy can change the world!But the Oil companies want these technologies unknown to the masses,Get a real free energy motor at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,The revolution begins!
FROM MEXICO to the STREETS OF HULL-DRUGS have been turned into a VIETNAM for this planet-I am sick of seeing folks I care about DIE for no good reason than to let politicians strutt-we lived with drugs for 1000s of years-this prohibition has been a crime-a cancer. TIME TO GROW UP!
This issue really has very little to do with President Bush, every president of the 20th century had a virtually identical view on the legality of drugs.
I've considered myself to be a Republican since I was around 15 years old, but libertarians like John Stossel and Larry Elder have made me re-evaluate my stance on a lot of issues. The first and foremost of these ideas is the war on drugs.
@bnkosu The chaos going on in Mexico right now is every bit as brutal as it was in Colombia during the Pablo Escobar years. How long is it going to be before Zetas moves onto bombing airliners? Legalize all this stuff and tax it modestly, and you have killed two birds with one stone, vicious drug cartels are out of business and our national debt will begin to stabilize.
This really PISSES me off and makes me feel lucky to be British. In the first part why the F are they pretending to be dealers and arresting ppl buying a bit of personal. (Although i also disagree) if they wanted to cause an impact WHY not pretend to be buyers and arrest the dealers? its disgusting. it really should be questioned how taxpayers money is being used in the unwinnable war on drugs
what difference does it make whether the cops are pretending to be the buyers or sellers? Its the same thing. They gotta do something to get the drugs off the streets!
What a giant waste of tax money. When will the 'limited government' conservatives start following their so-called principles and help end this insanity?
Wow, I think the most poignant statement is when the police chief says that if we relent this war on drugs that we would have more resources to fight violent crimes. This is confounded by the idea that if drugs were legalized that it would help diminish drug related crimes. The era of alcohol prohibition saw huge spikes in mob violence, yet we continue to drive substances that are in demand into the hands of violent people, creating more problems.
The thing that drives me nuts is how Dubya wanted more money and resources to fight the drug war... and he was a coke fiend! And an alcoholic!
But because he was a member of the anointed, rich, WASP, northeastern political class, he never got caught. He never had to strip, squat, and cough in front of thug private-prison guards, or get roughed up by corrupt double-dealing drug police. The Drug War isn't aimed at his group - its aimed at ours.
@aldoreshgaramok This is very true. I had a very eye opening experience in college when I attended a fairly affluent school. A lot of kids drank heavily, smoked pot, did coke, etc. Then I started dating someone from a lower-economic, minority area of town. The cops were harassing these people all the time, & jailing them for minor pot possessions! I was like, um, there is more crazy drug use going on at my school! This is why the NAACP is backing legalizing pot in CA.
The government keeps the war on drugs going because they are the ones bringing the drugs in to start with. From Air America, the CIA owned airline that smuggled opium & heroin in Vietnam, to Iran-Contra CIA cocaine smuggling, to the CIA Guflstream Jet that crashed in Mexico with FOUR TONNES of cocaine onboard.
"The Land of the Free" now jails more people than any other nation in the world. The Drug War has overturned the Constitution and destroyed the Republic. End it now
Make Love Not War! I'm in the military. I have no desire to use drugs. However, I agree. Let's end this hopeless endeavor. Imagine how we could use the money, resources and energy toward something that we could actually win.

government calls their war , War On Drugs , but in reality its a war against people who use drugs to many people are in prison for merely hurting themselves I think the government should stop trying to pretend to be a advocate of people that they claim to be protecting and start to restore these peoples freedom and records but that is not happending which begs the quesion who are they advocating for
@sagitarian000028 Exactly, the guys on Jackass became famous worldwide for doing stupid stuff and injuring themselves, yet the only time they get thrown in prison is when they stuff a little bit of a plant up their ass and cross a border. Its absurd.
if ppl wanna use drugs they are gonna UNITED STUPID ASSES stop arresting people for nothing usa isnt happpy unless they are fighting a war on something
the goverment wants everyone to use drugs, so if they catch u they can rob u and take all ur money, UNITED STUPID ASSES put harmelss people with drugs in jail longer then someone who raps a little boy and buts his dick in his bum, usa needs to re think and use there stupid heads, the country is dumb as shit
There is too much money involved. The local governments need Washington's money to ensure their police and judicial agencies are funded. The politician want the votes and nothing gets more votes then the War on Drugs lock'em up attitude that jails blacks and browns.
About the only example on unarguably good liberalism; is drug use. It's pretty strange that the goverment can tell me what i can't put in my own body. Then again the goverment has been caught numerous times shipping in drugs for questionable purposes (as well the few major CIA fuck-ups) Then again the goverment also funds the lottery and encourages you to gamble your money..the goverment, like everything is is ultimately trying to make money.
"Have you used illegal drugs"? "The government says 1/3 of you have".
Yea but, the Federal Government deals drugs to the drug dealers.
Aside from being the nation's Kingpins, the ruling oligarchy also murdered 3000 Americans on 9/11. Thus, the government can speak in asserting "we the people's" guilt... but they're criminals & murderous, kingpin criminals don't have any credibility
"Federal spending on the drug war has been going up, to 50% over the past 10 years and Pres. Bush wants still more"
That's precisely what could be predicted when the Federal Government wages war against itself. They've been taking more & more money over the years and getting away with being the Kingpins... its simply obvious that they would react by escalating what they've been getting away with
If the government is pleading "not guilty", then there aren't any Americans doing "illegal" drugs
the onyly drug that should b legalized is weed. its not a bad drug. cigarettes and alcahol kill more peopel than weed. the war on drugs will never be won anyway cuz the demand is always gonna be high. the bad thing is that its minorities who r affected by this since we're the one doing most of the selling. BTW at 0:35 Bush looks like he wants to laugh/smile. he doesnt care. besides didnt he or one of his daughters take drugs?
@jokerkiller5 Minorities sell drugs because they often live in poverty, are exposed to it at a young age and can make good money doing it. Legalize all drugs and the black market for it goes away. Minorities wouldn't sell drugs because they would not make money, instead they'd focus on their rap career or playing in the NBA.
If I was involved in this and the police busted the door open, I would run away from the police as fast as I can. I will hide where they can't find me. Lol.
Fought a battle myself yesterday - went over into the netherlands and like a samurai warrior, I annihilated about 1 gram of jack herrer and 1/2 gram of hashish. Killed it all with fire!
The fight gained the dutch government about 3 euro in tax ... and on the way home I gave a drunk stumbling out of a pub the finger. Gotta love the war on drugs!
Ugh... just fucking legalize pot already. Make it like alchohol: regulate it, tax it, make money, take some of the power away from drug lords/gangs, have less people in prison, WHY THE FUCK WON'T THEY JUST DO THAT?! Fucking idiot politicians...
Legalize all drugs. There is nothing in the constitution that says the federal government has any authority to attack personal choices that do not harm anybody else.
@FBTiger58 Correction, any personal choice a person makes WILL have an effect on somebody else. Who is that somebody? Try mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, wives, husbands, and kids. The biggest victims of drugs, besides the user who becomes addicted to them, are the heartbroken family members of the abusers.
@GreyWolfLeaderTW So you're saying that it's the governments responsibility to ensure that everyone has a happy and healthy family? What Article and section says that? Should the government also make sure I have a ride to work everyday? Or that I'm eating enough vegetables? You CANNOT save people from themselves, you can present non-biased information for them so they can make their own informed decision. The war on drugs is the biggest failure in American history and it needs to be stopped.
@GreyWolfLeaderTW How about if someone joined the military in a pacifist family? It would have almost the exact same affects, yet I don't see how you could say it should be illegal with a straight face.
Fast cars, DRINKING, SMOKING CIGGARRETTES? The list is endless, people have to make their own choices. Hurting someone else's feelings isn't enough of a reason to infringe on someone's life.
@GreyWolfLeaderTW So the government is there to protect family's from their other family members from hurting them? I know a guy who's daughter married a black guy and he wasn't too happy. Maybe the government should've stopped that too. You're everything that is wrong with the world. If you want to control others, you should be controlled and put in a cage if you believe in it so much.
@FBTiger58 they do harm others, through burglary, murder and other crime, drug remedy programs that cost billions, thats why you got to kill anyone with more than an ounce on them
@1973mazdarx4coupe Right now drugs harm others BECAUSE they are illegal. If legal, drug prices would drop 95%(burglary), and power would be taken away from drug cartels(murder). "kill anyone with more than an ounce on them"? You have some problems if you think that someone with over an ounce of a naturally growing plant, should be killed. Reality check for you buddy, I GUARANTEE someone very close to you has either tried drugs, or currently does drugs. Should we just kill them? Didn't think so.
@KripDrip I actually witness the devastation that drugs cause people/towns every day, where I live there is a HUGE meth problem. And yes, you're right, some drugs do destroy some lives. Last time I checked, however, gambling, infidelity, alcohol, greed, and disease also destroy lives. Think a law can get rid of all of those things too? As long as drug users only endanger themselves, let them shoot up heroin 24/7. You CANNOT save people from themselves.
@morrowindmods Tell me, what's the difference between cocaine, heroin, and alcohol (besides the fact that the first two are illegal)? Once again, you cant save people from themselves. If someone wants to shoot up heroin all day, they're gonna do it whether its legal or not. The only thing drug laws do, is send these people to prison (when they should be getting help for their addiction), costing taxpayers BILLIONS of dollars, and creating a perpetual cycle of addiction and imprisonment.
@FBTiger58 Its not the same, right now the people using Heroine Cocaine are around 60% less than the people that smoke pot.
Thats becouse they are dangerous and hard to get , if they get legalized they will become as easy to get as weed and alcohol and more people will try them and get addicted
@morrowindmods First of all, where did you get your 60% statistic? As for availability, you say that you agree with legalizing pot. Ever heard of the stepping stone theory? I personally don't believe in the stepping stone theory, but its something to consider for a person taking your stance on the issue. You still don't understand the basic premise of freedom. It shouldn't be up to you to determine what I put into/do to my body, it's mine, and only mine.
@morrowindmods Oh, and before you accuse me of being a druggie, I don't do any drugs whatsoever, I don't consume alcohol, or smoke cigarettes. I am just one man who cares deeply about freedom to every degree. If you want to do something and its not hurting anybody else, you should be able to do it; even if it may kill you.
@FBTiger58 well said. everyone thinks i am a huge pothead, and yet, i have never smoked once! yes, government should have the power to imprision a person for what he/she puts into their own body. if the pursuit of happiness doesn't include the right to alter one's OWN consciousness, then the constitution isn't worth the hemp it was written on.
@morrowindmods if they legalize ALL drugs then you won't have herione addicts breaking into peoples homes to steal money for their drugs. if you have safe-injection sites where folks recieve treatment for their addiction and aren't treated as criminals then you won't see as many addicts sharing needles on the streets and contracting HIV. if governments gave a damn about the well being of human beings and not just their own vested interests you wouldn't see the global poverty that you see today.
3/4 of our budget spent of arresting people and stinging people trying to buy pot? what the fuck is wrong with cops... the DEA is a joke. its the most worthless war and time spent on a war that will never end. EVER. money well spent huh? when it could be spent so many beter ways
the disaster of the drug war is a perfect example of what happens when the forces of legislating morality and the forces of supply/demand collide in an epic battle
well war on drugs my ass. people should look up michael rupperts confrontation with the los angeles police chief i think it was.. or the cia jet carrying 4 tons of cocaine that crashlanded in mexico some years ago.
That DEA agent has to get his head out of his ass, Drug use and supply has increased nearly 200% and I dont need a fucking bias government statistic to tell me that, here in my high school I have seen a back pack with five blocks of cocaine with a scorpion inprint on it.
The "War on Drugs" is just a term and excuse to make incursions into the Americas. It is a decoy to fight a much bigger enemy than cocaine, Socialism.
People say let them fuck up thwir own body but drugs cost money and druggies dpn't maintain regualr jobs so they have to rob hardworking people who aren't druggies of their property.

America’s ‘War on Drugs’ is an utter failure, stripping citizens of their Constitutional Rights, illegaly seizing private property, and destroying families. Regardles of your values, you cannot deny the fact that prohibition does not, and has not ever worked.
I’m surprised more Democrats aren’t upset about this waste of resources, and it’s impact on the common citizen, compared to National security expenditures.

Wow, I think the most poignant statement is when the police chief says that if we relent this war on drugs that we would have more resources to fight violent crimes. This is confounded by the idea that if drugs were legalized that it would help diminish drug related crimes. The era of alcohol prohibition saw huge spikes in mob violence, yet we continue to drive substances that are in demand into the hands of violent people, creating more problems.

The cops were harassing these people all the time, & jailing them for minor pot possessions! I was like, um, there is more crazy drug use going on at my school! This is why the NAACP is backing legalizing pot in CA.

The government keeps the war on drugs going because they are the ones bringing the drugs in to start with.

Aside from being the nation's Kingpins, the ruling oligarchy also murdered 3000 Americans on 9/11. Thus, the government can speak in asserting "we the people's" guilt... but they're criminals & murderous, kingpin criminals don't have any credibility
