May 2012

this is about an entire set of laws built upon racism that has been allowed to stand for 70 years.

this is about the intrusion of federal-level entities who are upholding bad laws to BENEFIT corporations.

Why do you think the private prison industry, esp. Corrections Corp. of America, the Alcoholic Beverage Industry and the pharmaceutical industries are the top lobbyist against marijuana reform?

it's NOT because they are such enlightened civil liberties-loving good Amurikans.

jesus - flog that dead horse. that's how America became the nation that imprisons more citizens than China.
