LEAP vs. John Mccain
    #7867321 - 01/11/08 11:19 PM (16 years, 21 days ago)

Working New Hampshire police officer Bradley Jardis confronted Senator John McCain on November 25, 2007, at a Presidential Campaign stop at Franklin Pierce College in Ringe, New Hampshire, about Senator McCains's support for The War On Drugs.

Here is the transcript:

Bradley Jardis: I have served here in my state as a law enforcement officer for going on nine years now. And after nine years of working the street, I have come to the conclusion that the war on drugs is a terrible failure. I saw first hand that the war on drugs causes crime. It causes children to have access to drugs easier and it does nothing to curb the problem of drug trafficking or use--just as alcohol prohibition after the 18th amendment passed. Then we wised up and passed the 21st amendment, which curbed the violence problem within this country greatly. What is it going to take for powerful politicians, such as yourself, to realize that the war on drugs is a failure and we need to get smart about drugs? Not tough, we need to be smart about drugs.

I thought that was a very good answer. 

He did of course make up that shit about the relation to "terrible effects" of drug legalization/regulation, but he actually addressed the problem head on, and didn't equivocate.

:thumbup:

Someone needs to show McCain the evidence that use, addiction, and problems are not related to the legal status of drugs:

the above as an example only
