It astounds me that anyone can defend the "war on drugs" or prohibition. One needs only to sum it up with "There wouldn't have been an Al Capone without alcohol prohibition, and there wouldn't have been a Pablo Escobar without the war on drugs." Prohibition takes fake crimes and makes real criminals. Having sampled almost every illicit drug but heroin, I will safely say that nearly every "study" or claim by the US government is more often than not a bald-faced lie, I would never trust information from NIDA, the DEA, or the ONDCP, they are nothing but liars.

Drug prohibition has never been anything more than racism and class war. Banning opium so the racists could have a reason to persecute the Chinese, cocaine and marijuana so they could persecute blacks and Mexicans. Our current attrocious war on drugs because Tricky Dick wanted a reason to jail those damn hippies. I've done ecstacy plenty of times, I have to say I feel addiction is only as real as you want it to be. Tobacco and alcohol kill more people a year than every other illicit drug combined. I used to be the binge user, I feel I can safely say most of the illegal drugs are near impossible to overdose on. I've had nights where I've done 400$ in methamphetamine in a period of 7 or 8 hours, 5 or 6 rolls of X in a row, 10 rails of cocaine, etc. I don't say this to brag, I say this to point out that I believe with the utmost conviction that any government drug agency is nothing more than a propaganda production organization.

It's a joke that this country dares to call itself a free country yet tells grown adults what they may or may not put in their own bodies. That is not freedom, it's moral policing, and morals are highly relative.

If people want to drop acid to talk to God, well then that's their own goddamned perogative and the government should leave them the hell alone. I'm sick and tired of fake conservatives who have given us everything but smaller government.
