The End Of Marijuana Prohibition — In Under Three Minutes! Thu, 21 May 2009 22:32:18 By: Paul Armentano, NORML Deputy Director The criminal prohibition of cannabis is an indefensible public policy position. Why can I say that? Just watch the video below. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SY0TQ1uOn3k&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fnorml%2Eorg%2F&feature=player_embedded It’s been clear for quite some time that proponents of marijuana prohibition have nary a leg to stand on. When their position is scrutinized, even the least bit, it ends up collapsing like a house of cards. In this case, the look on FBI Director Robert Mueller’s face two minutes and forty-three seconds into the video says it all. His empty rhetoric has failed and he has no more artillery left in his arsenal. He’s been defeated and he knows it. What’s most amazing about this exchange is just how quickly it all unraveled. Faced with the job of defending a multi-billion dollar public policy — one that’s been in place for more than seven decades — one of Washington, DC’s top bureaucrats found himself looking for a place to hide in under three minutes. That’s all the time it takes to destroy marijuana prohibition. As the public support in favor of legalization continues to grow, we can expect to see more and more defenders of prohibition squirm like Mr. Mueller. That is, if there are any public defenders still left to be found.
Man nessee's congressman is a fucking badass! Glad to see there are some level heads in politics still.:thumbsup:
"They probably started off with milk, and then went to beer.. And then they went to Bourbon. And then they might have gone to marijuana." lol. Its true, there are virtually no deaths related to marijuana. Especially when you compare against all other drug related death numbers.
