The People Have Spoken

The people have spoken in the 2008 election, and they have stated loudly that marijuana use is to be accepted and not to be treated as a crime. http://stopthedrugwar.org/chronicle/559/marijuana_initiatives_win A medical marijuana initiative in Michigan -- the first in the Midwest -- and a decriminalization initiative in Massachusetts both won by convincing margins, and scattered local initiatives on various aspects of marijuana policy reform all won, too. It's high time for all states as well as the federal government to decriminalize marijuana and end the unwinnable and costly "War on Drugs". Stop the Drug War: http://stopthedrugwar.org/home Even law enforcement agents are active in ending the senseless war on drugs,. Take a look: http://www.leap.cc/cms/index.php The people in power at the highest levels of business and government will not go quietly into the night, because some of them are actually responsible for the illegal drug problem in the USA and around the world. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5b6kf5PIzX4 The same can be said about the war on terror, and the war on illegal immigration, as well as the war on crime in general. Remember their modus operandi: Problem, Reaction, Solution. http://www.prisonplanet.com/ http://www.rense.com/ http://federaljack.com/
