i wouldnt trust john stossel (SP?) very much. he seems like the type to edit and twist words and phrases, if you ask me the guy is pretty crooked
I am reading thru comments on ABC's forum and I came across this link posted by an ex-cop. I found it interesting. Quote: John, Thank you for the factual report about our insane War on Drugs. As a retired police officer and former Marine I can tell you that the War on Drugs has destroyed many more lives then drugs ever will. Drugs have been used as the excuse to eliminate many of our constitutional guarantees. It is time to end this failed policy and seek a public health approach and regulate drugs as we do the most harmful drugs Alcohol and Tobacco. I work with many police officers both current and former who are opposed to the War on Drugs. We have two organizations of police officers/law enforcement that are working to reform/abolish our current laws.
