A slur against libertarians everywhere. But the LP isn’t going to go anywhere if they think campaigning against the drug war or even current drug laws is going to get them elected to major offices or make the Republicans nervous. Voters care more about what congress is currently battling over, and it isn’t drugs. It’s the economy and health care “reform” that’s being shoved down our throats.

I agree with you, but I challenge the imputation that my remark was meant as a slur. Do you disagree that 99.8% of the so-called (small-l) "libertarian" commentary on this website is related to legalizing drugs?

Don't be stupid. Anyone capable of critical thought knows the drug war is a corrupt joke on the tax payers, with big government totally in support of this drug war.

Enough of that BS....If we can spend hundreds of billions throwing Americans in cages for drugs, we can spend of few billion for giving our fellow Americans help with their problems....Instead of throwing them in GD cages, like the dark ages, those that want help give it to them...

Treat it like alcoholism, instead of busting down their freaking doors with commando like military style operations in our neighborhoods. That lunacy must end and soon.

It's become a joke, instead of police departments, we should call them the drug and medical departments...

It's become a farce, as tens of thousands of those in the government are making a great living at tax payers expense off this drug war scam, while costing the tax payers hundreds of billions.

Enough!
