The DEA has failed to eradicate marijuana. Now Congress wants it to stop trying.

4. consider this

"The plants were destroyed by law enforcement officers under the auspices of the DEA's cannabis eradication program. This program allocates money from the Department of Justice's Asset Forfeiture Fund to 128 state and local law enforcement agencies. The agencies use this money to locate and destroy indoor and outdoor marijuana grow sites."

So the mf'ers steal somebody's money, then use it to take somebody else's herb!

The important thing about all this is that it has always been a fraud. A genuine giant fraud committed by our own government on us. The big question for me is, " How has this been allowed to go on for so long and to such a degree of evil AFTER thinking people KNEW it was wrong?" The ACLU position paper on drug policy was written 20(?) years ago. It's all there. What is wrong with our country when it takes so gd long to change a policy that is so unredeemably bad and destructive in so many ways.
