Here are two newspaper articals I found today and thought you should all see them.

Many Victims in the war on drugs

Here is a quote from

<h2 class="title">The war on drugs has many victims </h2> Adelaide Independent Weekly - ‎Mar 27, 2009Quote: Surely, we should do something different.

It's a war we've been fighting and losing for a hundred years.

Nope, now they'll just use law enforcement, policing, prohibition and "treatment".

 

OH and....

"When the Vatican issued a statement that harm reduction leads to the liberalisation of drug use and is thus anti-life, it was all over."

when will people stop listening to religious nut jobs who bare no evidence?
