There’s a law that some experts say contributes mightily to the destruction of low-income African American families and neighborhoods. It’s not a law that specifically prohibits them from getting a job or a loan or buying a home or voting. But the effect is often the same. (Washington Post)

Connecticut – Race An Issue In Drug-Reform Debate
Posted by Curmilus Dancy II (Butch) on April 18, 2009
I’ve been inundated.
Last week I innocently mentioned that I’ve evolved on this idea of legalizing marijuana. Apparently, I’m not moving fast enough for the drug-law reformers.
They want the full monty – the legalization of pot, cocaine, heroin and the like.
I’d like to take a more measured approach, starting with more decriminalization of reefer and a better understanding of what the consequences are. For those of you who insist there’ll be none and point to post-Prohibition reports, I am still not buying. (Hartford Courant)

Hartford Connecticut – Just Say ‘I’m Willing To Think About It’
Posted by Curmilus Dancy II (Butch) on April 12, 2009
Jack Cole was driving from Norwich to Hamden with his latest convert in an emerging movement to legalize marijuana. Just so happens that the new recruit is a retired cop. No, he’s not undercover.
Actually, it’s no surprise that former Manchester Capt. Joseph Brooks signed up for Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, a Massachusetts-based advocacy group of which Cole is executive director. Most of the 12,000 members are law enforcement types who share at least one thing in common: They want to make marijuana legal. (Hartford Courant)
