DRUG PROHIBITION DOESN'T PAY IN LONG RUN

Not all cops favor building more prisons because of the Rockefeller
Drug Law. Law Enforcement Against Prohibition is lobbying to regulate
all drugs and make personal responsibility once again the cornerstone
of our drug laws.

Our collective thousands of years in the trenches showed us that the
net effect of arresting a drug dealer was zero difference on the
streets and the taxpayers were forced to build yet another prison.

Drug prohibition is a cancer destroying our youth and our country.
Will we ever be as wise as our grandparents and end drug
prohibition?
