You might want to check your facts: http://www.drugwarfacts.org/cms/ Even Obama has called the war on drugs a failure, but I guess you are proud to have the highest proportion of the population behind bars of all the industrialized countries. http://proxychi.baremetal.com/november.org/Prohibition/artwork/Prohibition.jpg Politicians who talk tough on drugs, support organized crime.
