Petition: Face the Drug War’s Failure
Shall we forever entice terrorists, cartels and gangs to seek enormous
profits so easily generated by defying laws against a select few plant
products?
"Within the last year, the Global Commission on Drug Policy, Law
Enforcement Against Prohibition, the US Conference of Mayors and both
the National Black and Latino Police Associations along with the NAACP
and many other international organizations and individuals have called
for an end to the current mechanism of drug war.
Currently, there is not one high echelon proponent of drug war willing
to discuss this subject in any open, public venue. Therefore, let us
quench our thirst for justice and open this dialogue not just on the
editorial pages or the occasional broadcast of two-studio banter, but
rather we must have an open, national debate on the subject of drug war.
We the undersigned therefore beseech the President and the Congress to
mandate that said open and public discourse about the prohibition of
drugs take place forthwith with the Directors of the ONDCP and the DEA.
NOTE: This documents author Dean Becker hosts a weekly radio program at
www.drugtruth.net. Given the opportunity his first question would be:
"What is the benefit, what have we dervied that offsets the horrible
blowback of waging this, the first eternal war?""
