1:45...why pushing drugs? because that's how he makes money.. and he has no "supervision"

The war on drugs has been flipped 180 degrees from natural herbs to synthetic tablets and injections. We should be fighting Big Pharma, not looking to expensive pharmaceutical - non pronounceable cures to treat common ailments and debilitating diseases. I know MS sufferers that smoke marijuana to alleviate excruciating pain, while Dr's "practice/sell" medicines, that themselves have no clue about!

This is one of the many different sources I have seen in the last six months regarding legalization of drugs. I must give the credit for bringing this issue to the surface to Ron Paul. He has been saying this for many many years. He had the guts to bring it up to the main stream in presidential debates and now its resonating all over society. I agree with about 60% of his platform but he's got my vote.

It would be cool if Carol started a organization called "Grandmas Against Prohibition" I think that would get some attention.

Hallucinogens saved my life. I was on self destruct getting drunk every night and treating my family like crap before I started taking hallucinogens. These drugs made me relive every wrong I had ever done from the victims point of view. I changed my violent ways virtually over night and managed to turn my life around, giving my family a better life as well. Now why don't we hear more stories like this on the news?

Agreed! The War on Drugs, it seems, has completed the exact opposite aim that it had: the reduction of drugs. Decriminalizing, Legaling and REGULATING the trade of drugs would be the best policy, which will then actually foil the illegal trader's plans and decrease the overall drug use by kids.

just saw a clip of Pat Robertson on The 700 Club mentioning how detrimental it is to have marijuana be illegal. Wonder how many of his viewers actually listened with objective ears and rational thought processes.

Watch "Warning Police Officers of Drug Corruption in the US" Ever wonder where the problem stems from? After you watch that, watch "Invisible Empire A New World Order Defined!" Things are far more worse than you could ever imagine.

If I had a pile of rocks with the names of corporations I would love to stone I could build a mansion for the poor 'With them all 'And each stone naming the poor child they killed! 'When Value was placed over humans with money

'End the war on drugs!'
