51. How many things wrong can you spot in the picture?
One, that the federal government is still waging a war on drugs, and that pot is still part of this war. Two, that medical marijuana decreed by the state as a legitimate activity, is being shut down by the federal government. Meanwhile, I guarantee within five city blocks of that raid they can find hard drugs being sold somewhere.

And of course, three, that privatization has spread from the armed forces, to security forces dealing with the American public. Here is a thread from a few days ago detailing the private CIA that Blackwater is forming:

"Blackwater launches private CIA"

Don't forget, these people were also present in New Orleans during Katrina working both for the Federal Government and for wealthy private citizens. Jan 20th can't come fast enough.
