PROHIBITING MARIJUANA, OTHER DRUGS IS ANTI-AMERICAN

Police and the law enforcement community in general are part of the 
problem and reason the costly, failed and discredited war on drugs 
and the plant cannabis (marijuana) continues.

Years ago the police mantra included: If you don't like the laws then 
change them, and they don't make the laws they just enforce them. But 
no longer. Police associations and unions organize against credible 
cannabis and drug law reform with the effect of job security being 
the goal, regardless of what is best for North America. Shame on them 
and shame on the media for allowing and enabling it. Prohibition is 
anti-American.
