Thank-you for your multi-member support to stop the hurt the war on drugs has cost America, and now potentially threatens Canada.<br /><br />I know to many politicians, and the general public there is a real fear that talk of "legalizing drugs" is tantamount to this nation imploding with addicts. I empathize with the fear, but it's time to look again.<br /><br />This nation is now "imploding" as a direct consequence of the now infamous Drug Control Act, choreographed and won by Pres. Richard Nixon in 1971, against the recommendations of the very Blue Ribbon Committee he put in charge of developing a sound and practical, "drug policy". <br /><br />Currently, politics is obsessed with the past... in thinking real devils have taken over, are everywhere - destroying America, threatening our youth, our national security.<br /><br />Personal freedom, Constitutional rights must either be forsaken, or amended. The federal govt. must have control of the states, and the people. <br /><br />Emphasis on CONTROL... politically, "marijuana" represents that control. If a government controls the use and possession of cannabis, it controls the population... with an, up to, 30-day window to detect previous use in the human body, control of a large segment of the population considered "unconventional" is possible. Having the means to incarcerate and over-tax (through fines) for this segment of the population is an added plus.<br /><br />The War on Drugs is a War on humanity. It's a war upon the differences the people within a country possess. It is the exact opposite of a solution... especially considering the origin of the War on Drugs, 1937, "The Marihuana Tax Act". <br /><br />Not only was the perceived threat overblown in 1937, it was quite biased, based on hearsay and prejudiced. Ironically, the "Tax Act" was found to be unconstitutional in 1970. Essentially nullifying any laws based on cannabis; unfortunately no one seems to have taken governments to task, in court on this, and then, a year later, Nixon's "War on Drugs" is born.<br /><br />What a tragedy! <br /><br />Thank-you LEAP for your exemplary efforts and reaching out to our northern neighbors, Canada! I hope they listen to common sense, and your combined experiences.BobKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11591749929142963330noreply@blogger.com
