"War on Drugs" Fail
    #14554318 - 06/03/11 05:36 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

The Global Commission on Drug Policy speaks up about the failed "war on drugs". America, of course, goes on the defense.

Quote:

Forty years after US president Richard Nixon declared a "war on drugs", the Global Commission on Drug Policy has declared that the war has been lost.

While more and more people have been incarcerated around the world, the past decade has been marked by a rise in the use of cocaine, opiates and marijuana.

The War on Drugs has also contributed to alarming murder rates, Mexico being hit the hardest with 34,000 lives lost in just four years.

Al Jazeera's Cath Turner reports from New York on the lost battles in a tiring war.

"We are all intoxicated. We were born into an insane asylum, a world crazy-making. We believe what we see and hear. The real myth is the myth of sanity, of rationality: it's a disease that is eating away at the earth. All the poisons flow from our denial. We deny madness, we forget our crimes, we dismember the corpse, we imprison our children. We need poison to poison the poison, to remember the sacred nature of intoxication, the green body of the young god." ~ Dale Pendell

"This whole War on Drugs thing is bullshit.  You can't even call it a war"

    "Why is that?"

"Wars end."

Unfortunately, I think they are fooling a rather large percentage of the population.

true. although i will say that there is a certain perspective shift amongst some of those who used to wholly believe in Nixons war. as they see more and more of their children being thrown into the court system of the slammer for something as minor as possession of some plant matter they are coming to realize that this just ain't working.
