The war on drugs is one of the most evil abominations of our society.

Next to abortion, the war on drugs is the most in-humane activity that our government engages in.

This man had his house broken into and his dog shot for possessing a small amount of marijuana.

It blows my mind how our society can let people be killed every year as a result of keeping marijuana illegal. So far, I have heard nobody mention any logical reason for it being illegal.

1. It is safer to smoke than cigarettes.
2. You cannot die from overdosing on marijuana.
3. Unlike alcohol, it causes peaceful and laughter-filled behavior.

However, marijuana is kept legal for a few reasons.
1. To keep the private prison industry in business and well-paid.
2. To maintain a base of slave-labor (prison work programs). Yes, slavery still exists in the USA and the government is the slavemaster. People are put in jail for possessing and selling a relatively harmless substance and forced to work building highways etc... How is this not slavery? ok, so they are paid $2 per hour... and the money they make can only be spent at the shops in the prisons.. which are owned by the government or some old college buddy of the guy in charge of the DEA??? This is an insult to humanity.
3. To appease those who are afraid of societal change, mainly the evangelical crowd.
4. To keep a steady cashflow going to private military contractors and a multi-billion dollar government agency.

This is insulting to the human race.

I feel sorry for this guy who lost his dog due to evil and anti-human laws.

Mmm...well, perhaps it won't necessarily kill you, but marijuana can really wreak havoc on your brain...I recently talked to a nurse who mournfully related to me her years of working in a hospital, particularly in the ER. "You should see a CAT scan of the brains of some of those old druggies who have smoked weed for years. It's just horrendous," she said. This aside, you are right: it really is a foolish waste of time and probably even an unconstitutional thing for the government to be doing. Besides, whatever they make illegal will always be accessible to the people who really want to get their hands on it.
