Outstanding video~

The problem is that the Black Operations of too many intelligence agencies require large amounts of funding which can only come from illicit sources.

The Alphabet organizations REQUIRE prohibition - they will fight these programs tooth and nail. Do you think the CIA would give up their crack cocaine money? Would the NSA give up their opium profits?

I like LEAPS goals, but they have a lot of opposition from the intelligence agencies to overcome.

Single parent households and the war on drugs are the two main reasosn why people are locked up BOTH supported by the goverment!

[lonewolf1264]

Up here in Canad we got lots of"copdealers",confiscate druga and give them to their dealers including Hell's Angels,check out the Scott Loper story,and it is rampant up here,I do street ministry and know of 1 H.A. member murdered by Ed.City police!

[badattitude77769]

One problemo., what will the the thugs, the criminals, the drug dealers do for more illicet income, because everyone knows that losers want to be big dogs, always playing innocent people.

[FOXMANMUSIC]

I support legalization

[TuRdSandwitch18]

there's no good reason for drugs to b illegal other than to amke the government cash

[ugotpimp]

btw: guess who is the #1 sponsor of war on drug???

the alchohol industry!!! They want a monopoly on recreational drugs.

# of persons killed from MJ intake = zero

[ugotpimp]

war on drugs is a sham.

its a war on your freedoms and make a fortune for the govt.

more money has been spent on demonizing marijuana than any plant in history & all they really could come with was the dishonest

"its a gateway drug"

altho im a pure capitalist, MJ works againsts the capitalist model of working hard.

caffeine, nicotine & alchohol are much more damaging and are legal b/c they push capitalism.

MJ opens minds and challenges govt's status quo which is why youll go to jail

[sharperguy]

Marijuana is a gateway drug. It's a gateway to the world of crime and underground trade.

When someone tries marijuana, they have to go to a dealer who is breaking the law. They have to go to a criminal. This person may also engage in other crimes including selling other substances.

It's only natural that a marijuana user may find themselves being offered things they never thought they wanted.

[DumbDuck44]

I have no need to feel high nor desire to take drugs, however, the current system has FAILED and the policy does not and has not worked.

It didn't work for alcohol, and this prohibition isn't working for drugs. Legalize it, control it, and tax it. At the very least, all the crime surrounding the sale of common and less harmful narcotics like marijuana will come to an end overnight.

[NoLongerFooled]

End the "War on Drugs" NOW!

[libertarianjury]

The war on drugs is a sham to scare sheep into giving up their safety and their freedom. If they let us all carry guns, we'd be as safe as we can be. The fact that 48 states have prohibitions on gun carrying in addition to what the feds have instated in every state, reveals that the government doesn't care about our security. Read "Mindhunter" by John Douglass where he argues that putting police on victimless crime enforcement allows child murderers to continue their raping and killing.

[Roguever]

Good bloke.

Ah, America - home of the best and land of the worst of humanity.

The wooly thinking on this issue really shits me. If Obama - for example - believes that drugs should remain illegal, then logically he should hand himself in for his "crimes" as a youth.

Anything else is hypocrisy.

[FreeEdmond]

At the end, Woodrdge suggested government test ancdcontrol drugs to insure quality. Instead of government how about something like a Consumer Unior, Good Housekeeper, Untied Lab.

We don't need more government.

[LibertarianParty]

In a candid discussion after the interview we issued a series of rapid fire questions about that suggesting that private companies would be better to test the quality. We will release those tapes during his campaign for office next year. ;)

[HansBlumenkohl]

what is he running for?

[FreedomFox1]

good interview, but some police don't like to be called "cops"

[sakonhagakure]

I want to thank all of you people for reminding me as to why the libertarian party won't win any elections outside of town dog catcher in a small village filled with 55 people.

Just because you legalize dope doesn't mean the cartels and gangs will go away. With that line of logic Mcdonalds should be out of business because Burger King opened it's doors. These so called black market cartels will just simply operate out in the open and offer better prices than convenience stores.

[tykenfitz]

The only reason that gangs and cartels smuggle and sell drugs is that there is a huge demand and prices are high because it is illegal. If drugs were legal the cartels wouldn't make any money.

Why do think know one smuggles liquor any more?

[VanDoodah]

That's simply not true. When alcohol was illegal in America (1920s and 1930s), gangsterism was rife. Now that it's legal, there is fuck all black market alcohol. The same goes for cannabis. Legalise it and the gangs will go away.

[Domzdream]

I'm so glad to be alive to witness these discussion put forth seriously on news tv. Finally, people are thinking outside the box.

[iikkjslsjjiuhs]

so, according to Howard, having basic "consumer warning labels" on drugs would suffice.

what about for LSD?

"This drug may cause you to see giant purple rabbits that aren't really there. You may see God, Satan and angels who may or my not be real, either. You may have a tendency to feel your 1000s of feet high - like a giant in a super colossal world that may also be a mere hallucination. WATCH OUT FOR HEIGHTS - as you may feel you can fly. Use responsibly."

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.

[superdinoyoshi]

So you think making LSD illegal will keep people from using it?

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight

[iikkjslsjjiuhs]

test

[Briantino]

i have done lsd and know many people who use it more heavily then they probably should, and it doesn't make you see things... especially not purple rabbits. that's all hollywood..

LSD just changes the way you percieve things.

legalize LSD especialy so they can control the dose...

[iikkjslsjjiuhs]

@Briantino: I'm w/ ya on the sentiment, Briantino, I think LSD should be sold at Toys R Us.

The problem is gov and their unwillingness to compare standardized dosages, i.e., 1 beer = 1 mcg of LSD and so on.

LSD is so safe you can give it to an infant - MUCH safer than water or milk or air.

HOWEVER, when you crank up the dose to 100 or 300 or 500 + mcg, then it's a different story.

LSD is actually the safest substance on earth. But, try telling that to the corrupt, prejudice gov.

Good luck.

[Briantino]

Yeah, with the underground market you dont know what you're going to get... I took 3 doses (told it was relatively weak) my first time, then the second time i took 3 more and it was a completely different story... it seemed like 1 dose was equal to all 3 of the first doses I took, so it was definitely a little to potent for my likings..

[iikkjslsjjiuhs]

Yeah, thanks to Prohibition and idiot assholes who support it.

[iikkjslsjjiuhs]

hey Gobama, I want to have a drink of alcohol in the privacy of my home - where is the victim?

I want to smoke a joint in the privacy of my home - where is the victim?

I want to take some LSD in the privacy of my home - where is the victim?

I want to take a tab of ecstasy in the privacy of my home - where is the victim?

I want to snort some cocaine in the privacy of my home - where is the victim?

No victim - no crime.

Repeal Prohibition = zero black market gangs / zero black market cartels.

[sakonhagakure]

When I drug someone's drink at the club with X there's a victim. Where you break into my house or my car trying to get your fix there's a victim. When someone doped up comes and steals from the corner store there's a victim. When someone gets mugged because by a crackhead there's no victim. If drugs were legalized the spike in homeless that will happen will be totally victimless. Because everybody knows that mental illness, drug use and homelessness are totally unrelated.

[thetapheonix]

My dad is a cop and he says to legalize drugs too. He thinks its stupid we waste so much money throwing nonviolent pot heads in jail and that we waste too much money find drugs when he could be going after real criminals.

Im not kjdding either he said that almost verbatim.

[mikesbaker]

do you have any idea how many times that what you said has been posted on the internet.

BULLSHIT

[kagibb]

ya, its like people dont look at past history & events and realize that prohibition doesn't work, how much proof and evidence/examples do you need? hell ya....this guy's from michigan

[MishuTaste]

You can imagine how our American economy would turn around---almost overnight---if marijuana was legalized. You'd have marijuana listed on the NYSE. There's so many Americans that are hellbent on destroying their brain cells...we could eliminate the 10 trillion dollar debt in a few years by taxing cocaine sold at Rite Aid or Walgreens. But the problem is: when people start dying in large masses...

[MishuTaste]

...their friends & relavtives are going to scream to Congress, "Why didn't you tell us these were dangerous drugs?! People are dying! You should BAN them."

[Fockersnextdoor]

America does not want meth legalized so do not lump that in with MJ. There is around 8lbs of toxic waste to water supplies for every 1 pound of meth produced.CMON get it right. decriminalize weed and regulate then wipe meth users from the earth.

[snoopdouggydougg]

I would tax marijuana at no more than it was taxed in 1910. And even that was probably too high.

[soicuw]

Well, I think we should hold off on passing it solely because the govt. would legalize it simply for the purpose of taxing the hell out of it. Seriously, taxes on marijuana would be 200-300% at least...

[sean21122112]

grow your own, the legalization bills in Cal. and Mass. allow for private cultivation. Let the saps pay for it.

[freesk8]

Great video, LP!

Libertarians make so much sense!

[KyleClarkUSA]

Let state by state legalize it or illegalize it most drug arrests are minor and done by state and local officers not federal offices most federal officers take 1-4 years to take down one drug lord by that time thousands are more are springing up!

[peepnklown]

The Prohibition of alcohol failed miserably and history has repeated itself in the Prohibition of drugs (or the War on Drugs). The War on Drugs creates the drug cartels. The War on Drugs increases corruption in the Law Enforcement Agencies. The War on Drugs keeps cheaper, safer drugs out of the hands of the people who need them (medical reasons). The biggest cost is the cost of liberty, we have the right to make the decisions of what we put into our bodies.

[urasmore]

the most frequent question for him was asking to legalizing weed and he said no

[allixpeeke]

The clip ends rather abruptly. I'd recommend having some sort of quick outro and a basic credits page to make LPTV look more professional.

Great job interviewing.

And yet Obama doesn't want to end the drug war. He lied yet again.
