MPP's Rob Kampia Debates Ending Prohibition in California

In yet another sign of the growing acceptance for marijuana policy reform, MPP’s Rob Kampia appeared on MSNBC and CNBC yesterday to discuss California Gov. Arnold Schwarzegger’s recent statement supporting an open discussion about ending marijuana prohibition.
You can see his MSNBC appearance here and the CNBC one in which he debates former drug czar official and lifelong drug warrior Kevin Sabet here. (Just to prove it’s really live TV, you’ll notice Rob’s audio feed cuts out at one point, causing him to talk over Sabet for a bit. Aw, shucks.)
By the way, here’s a shot of Rob during his MSNBC appearance that we kind of got a chuckle out of. I mean, drug warriors love accusing marijuana policy reformers of supporting terrorism, but actually being a terrorist? Now that’s playing hardball.

"You cant compare alcohol prohibition to drug prohibition"

Classic.
The interviewer kept on pointing out that prohibitionist was contradicting himself

I hated when his audio feed cut off, it made him look retarded... other than that, it was a good debate w/ a sympathetic host

When will prohibitionists realize that their arguments don't work when they don't control the debate? They try to steamroll the other side and when that fails they have to sow confusion with nonsense. I've been getting the feeling that we are at a tipping point in the senseless war on some drugs.
