Monroe Police Team Touts Success In 2009

“Our FIT team has been very successful over the past two years and has had a major impact on street level drugs during this time,” Glass said. “The stats tell a success story…

We are dealing with more and more street-level selling of prescription drugs…

“But we will deter it by keeping relentless pressure on those in the drug pushing business.”

Ex-Drug Addict’s Warning to Children

A Dumfries woman who was plunged into the misery of drug abuse at the age of just 13 is the latest police weapon in the war against illegal substances.

“One of the main points that comes across to me is the fact that she had a considerable addiction to heroin and at its worst was UKP100 to UKP150 per day but upon asking the service user she indicates that the worst drug she took was cannabis.

“The service user is working with police and treatment agencies giving her story to local school children in Dumfries and Galloway.

U.S. addicts killed Mexican hero

It’s a war stupids. Duh! Stop the War, stop the unnecessary deaths and terror and forced rehab and prison profits. Retreat to blame, its the addicts buying it? So bring the war to the streets of America? Not the first time it’s been suggested.

It’s either (1) pure unadulturated incompetence or (2) an evil diabolical plan against enemies of the culture war (read political dissidents), which is so intricate and well laid in conspiracies, complexities and intrigue, it defies comprehension.*

I pick #2.

*Follow The Money. Money is the lubricant and the fuel for the game to run smoothly. But as our good friend kaptinemo has pointed out, drug money also has a corrosive effect on everything it touches. I don’t think the prohibitionists ever considered the that the failure of the war on certain drugs lies in its motivating force.

With all due respect, kaptinemo, I disagree.

Over the decades, drug prohibitionists have been shielded mainly by the mainstream media — who have overwhelmingly refused to honor their journalism code of ethics when it comes to this issue.

There is literally not one sustainable point for sustaining drug prohibition, which should promptly lead to its end.

Credibility (sadly, even if it’s just perceived) is everything, and the intelligent online conversations (kudos to you all, btw) undermining the mainstream media’s formerly extreme bias are challenging journalists to start balancing out their reporting on this issue to avoid serious humiliation.

We need to continue to firmly challenge mainstream media credibility online. That is the key to success.

When we do our job, the mainstream media will do its job, then the public majority will do its job, and then the politicians will do their job, and then I’ll kick back with a vapor-surrounded, celebratory grin and do mine.

“America does not have a marijuana problem,we can find
marijuana in every town in America.”
The word drugs could replace the word marijuana,for anyone that wishes. You have my permission to use my phrase,either way.

The only people that could rationally support another 40 years of failure in the war on drugs are those who are making a good living from prohibition. That would be you, Sgt. Smug, and the Mexican cartels. Strange bedfellows indeed, and a sure sign that politics has triumphed over pragmatism and sound policy once again. It’s time to try something new!
