Bob Barr on the war on Drugs
2008-06-10 16:34:00 This is on the www.Huffingtonpost.comBob Barr I Was Wrong About The War On Drugs -- It's A Failure. I'll admit it, just five years ago I was "Public Enemy Number 1" in the eyes of the Libertarian Party. In my 2002 congressional race for Georgia's Seventh District, the Libertarian Party ran scathing attack ads against my stand on Medical Marijuana. Today, I am their presidential nominee and will represent libertarians at the top of the ticket on November 4th. Huh? That's right, Bob Barr, formerly the War on Drugs loving, Wiccan mocking, Clinton impeaching Republican is the presidential nominee for the Libertarian Party. Now, you may be asking how this happened and my answer is simple: "The libertarians won." For more than three decades, the Libertarian Party and small "l" libertarians have done their part to prove to America that liberty is the answer to most of the problems that we face today. Over the past several years, I was one of the many p...
The War on Drugs Has Failed - Should America Legalize Drugs?
2008-06-10 11:48:00 The war on drugs has failed;We must make peace, heal our wounds, and change our laws. Richard Burton,Chair, NAACP Prisoner Rights Sub-committee In 2005, International Activist Cliff Thornton invited me as Chairman of the NAACP Prisoner Rights Sub-committee, to participate in a drug conference in Hartford, Conn and after several years of research as it relates to drugs and its side effects, I offer these thoughts.The drug war can't be won, and we have lost. We merely repeat the mistake of Prohibition. The harder we try to stop this evil, the more lucrative we make it, and the more it spread. The war on drugs cannot be eradicated by making it more profitable and at the same time creating more jails/prisons, disparities, casualties and tax burdens. This view is shared by activists like Jack Cole a conference participant, a retired police lieutenant who worked on the front lines of the war on drugs, and who feels that prohibition causes more damage than the drugs themselves do.Accordin...

Reason.tv: Mississippi Drug War Blues - The Case of Cory Maye
2008-05-08 15:25:00 At 11p.m on December 26, 2001 police in Prentiss, Mississippi raided the residence of Cory Maye, a 21-year-old father who was at home with his 18-month-old daughter Ta’Corriana. The cops were looking for drugs and smashed through the back door. In the ensuing chaos, Maye hunkered down with his daughter in a bedroom and when the police broke down that door, he fired three bullets, one of which killed Officer Ron Jones. Maye testified in court that the police did not identify themselves until after they had entered his residence; indeed, he testified that they did not identify themselves until after he had fired his shots. Once they did, he said he put his weapon on the floor, slid it toward police, and surrendered. The police, who refused to talk with reason.tv, tell a different story. They claim that they identified themselves multiple times before entering Maye’s house and bedroom, and that there was no way Maye couldn’t have known who they were. A jury rejected M...

Suckers for the Phony War On Drugs
2008-04-11 01:22:00 LTE: THE PHONY WAR ON DRUGS I'm writing about Ralph Givens' thoughtful letter ( "End drug prohibition," April 8 ): The so-called war on drugs is a huge industry and huge bureaucracy. Victory in the drug war is not possible, nor is it the goal. Victory in the drug war would mean that the drug war industry and bureaucracy are out of business. There are basically two types of people who support the so-called war on drugs: Those who make their livelihood from it. This includes politicians and bureaucrats who are probably on the payroll of the drug cartels. ( Al Capone had hundreds of politicians and prohibition officials on his payroll. ) Suckers - taxpayers who have bought into the lies and propaganda of the drug-war industry and bureaucracy. Suckers - who are willing to sacrifice their own liberty and freedom because they don't like what others do to themselves. Suckers - who believe that criminalizing a substance will make it go away. Suckers - who think that drug prohibitio...
The War on Drugs - Barrel of Batteries EP (download gratis)
2008-04-07 19:23:00 I War on Drugs sono una band folk rock emergente, di Philadelphia. Da poco hanno firmato un contratto con l'etichetta Secretly Canadian, per la quale uscirà tra qualche mese il loro album d'esordio, "Wagonwheel Blues". Ma in attesa di questa uscita i War on Drugs ci deliziano con un eccezionale EP, "Barrel of Batteries", offerto gratuitamente. In tutto sono 6 brani, anche se, in realtà, tre sono vere e proprie canzoni mentre le restanti sono delle brevi registrazioni (meno di un minuto). La mia preferita è "Arms Like Boulders", un piccolo capolavoro. Ha un ritmo coinvolgente e una melodia splendida dettata sia dalle chitarre che dalla voce del cantante (ad un certo punto interviene anche l'armonica). E poi quel senso di malinconica felicità che tanto mi piace. Mi ha subito colpito. Perfetta per uno di quei viaggi in auto, in silenzio, con la sola compagnia della musica e la visione del meraviglioso paesaggio che si attraversa. Con la malinconia per quello che ci lasciamo alle spa...

Chicago War on Drugs Leads to Ban on Plastic Baggies
2008-03-06 15:54:00 I don’t even know who to start writing about this nonsense. It’s asinine that anyone could think that a crackdown on plastic baggies would have any effect on drug sales. THEY ARE SELLING DRUGS! Why would a ban on plastic bags stop them? Ugh: Tiny plastic bags used to sell small quantities of heroin, crack cocaine, marijuana and other drugs would be banned in Chicago, under a crackdown advanced Tuesday by a City Council committee. Ald. Robert Fioretti (2nd) persuaded the Health Committee to ban possession of “self-sealing plastic bags under two inches in either height or width,” after picking up 15 of the bags on a recent Sunday afternoon stroll through a West Side park. Lt. Kevin Navarro, commanding officer of the Chicago police Department’s Narcotics and Gang Unit, said the ordinance will be an “important tool” to go after grocery stores, health food stores and other businesses. The bags are used by the thousands to sell small quanti...

Manchin Keeps War on Drugs in View
2008-01-10 16:24:00 The Herald-Dispatch and The Intelligencer both focus on Manchin's "comprehensive drug eradication program."The governor's plan includes "prevention resource officers in schools, addiction training programs for health care professionals and drug courts," the Huntington paper reports. "The money also will be used by the State Police to hire more drug investigators and add training courses, among other things."The Wheeling paper touts Manchin's drug court proposal, as his plan would expand a program begun in Ohio County across the state.Update: The Charleston Daily Mail reports on the drug plan as well.A $44 million from a U.S. Justice Department settlement with the makers of OxyContin fuels this element of Manchin's agenda.

The War on Drugs
2007-10-26 10:02:00 The war on drugs and cartels used to be staples of nightly news and newspaper columns. Despite persistent drug abuse and trafficking, the status of the once touted War on Drugs goes largely unreported. Death and smuggling are exploding along the Texan border and America continues to help train and fund the Colombian army.
"War on Drugs" isn't just a term in Brazil
2007-10-18 19:40:00 In America, when we talk about "the War on Drugs," we're talking about the US government's active pursuit and apprehension of illegal drugs and drug dealers. Yes, we occasionally have a police shootout and big sting operations, but in Brazil the war on drugs is literally a war. Police invade neighborhoods with armored tanks, advanced weaponry and SWAT teams. These favelas, or slums, lie outside of Brazil's big cities such as Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo and house some of the country's most disadvantaged and impoverished. As is common knowledge, poverty is a magnet for crime and drug trafficking. The BBC reports on a recent shootout in Rio's favelas that left 12 dead. The drug problem in Brazil is so rampant that it has not only gripped Brazilians, but it has now been documented and spread internationally in films like "City of God" (Cidade de Deus) and "Elite Troops" (Tropa de Elite). The Brazilian police are also part of the problem in Br...

Harper?s ?war on drugs? regressive and irresponsible: Green Party
2007-10-11 22:20:00 Harper?s ?war on drugs? regressive and irresponsible: Green Party OTTAWA ? The Green Party today denounced Prime Minister Stephen Harper?s proposed drug strategy as an ideologically-driven step in the wrong direction and ignorant of evidence-based research. Last week, Mr. Harper announced his intent to spend $64 million in a war on drugs, focusing on punishment and enforcement ? not prevention. ?Mr. Harper is far too eager to sign Canada on to a Bush-style war on drugs that has spent billions and achieved nothing,? said Green Party leader Elizabeth May. ?An overwhelming body of evidence supports the notion that an effective drug strategy would focus on prevention, treatment facilities and harm reduction programs. ?Mr. Harper preaches prevention, yet spends many times the funds allocated to prevention on enforcing antiquated drug laws and punishing drug users. This approach is akin to simply burning tax dollars and is severely damaging to society. Instead of listening to t...
