HISTORY WILL SHOW FALLACY OF DRUG WARS

Denials of facts might last longer than all here today, but shall not last longer than the facts themselves.  Then the drug warriors will suffer the harshest historical perspective.  It shall overshadow all else that they were, and all else that they did.  In times harsh light, the drug warriors of today and their supporters will scurry to the shadows.  When cornered they will cough and mumble, ashamed of the hate that was in their hearts, as do the former racist of today.  And so it should be, because prohibition has always been the equally ugly sibling of racism.  That history has been written, but the lessons have yet to be learned.

And so the drug war dog of evil merrily chases its tail, as we stand idly by waiting for the day when we shall sheepishly regret our tolerance of what will come to be known as intolerable.
