The description and the name of the policy make perfect sense to me, from a moron's point of view of course. You give the sheep a made up problem and tell them they're being protected and they'll all go "woo hoo" and support it to the hilt.

Never mind that the drug crimes are DIRECTLY caused by the prohibition of said substances or many (if not most) recreational drug users simply get stoned at home as opposed to people who go OUT to bard and weave their cars home with one eye open after about 4-5 hours drinking. Never mind the fact that the pushers of hard drugs have an economic justification for addicting teenagers and would be out of business the minute drugs were legalized. Never mind the...

Okay, you get the picture.

I think I'm starting to slip and going soft on the drug war. I'm going to pop in my copy of "Reefer Madness" to remind myself how terrible drugs are and thank god for our good and moral government watchdogs who tirelessly keep us safe from this scourge.

Nite.

Not a day goes by that I don't see something that reinforces my belief that people are idiots.
