The amount of money spent in one year in America on fighting Cannabis could rebuild Haiti, but instead we send them a smaller amount, something left over in the treasurery. Trillions of Dollars have been given to programs which have not done even the slightest bit of good for our world, all in the name of keeping kids off drugs. A child can find and buy pot easier then a thirty year old can. The high school drug trade zone is full of coke, lsd, x, crack, meth, and pot, but not so much alcohol, why is that? well you need to be 21 to buy booze, but since there are no laws about selling substances deemed illegal to minors, thats what is forced on them and many of these substances are poisioned with harsh chemicals because the FDA is not concerned about the health of children. I would rather see kids smoking pot, then doing any other kind of substance abuse. The truth about Cannabis is so badly needed in our school systems, just to weed out hard drugs.

The denial of facts, the denial of truth about Cannabis, the instintance that the current verison is correct, the enforcement of unjust and criminal laws on all Americans is at the very least criminal. Who can change the laws? Judges, no they ruled Cannabis should be legal but the DEA shot them down. Lawyers, no they make too much money on both sides of drug crimes. Policiticans, no they live in fear of not being reelected. Congress, well they should, but they are run by lobbyests and not the people. President Obama, YES HE CAN, but he decided to laugh it off.A plant with thousands of uses should not be called a drug and dismissed. It can power our cars, clean our air, feed the poor, and cloth the world, what drug can do that? Asprin?

The war on Cannabis has now led to an international war on terrorism. When our rights left us, when our government had grown used to milking the public for its untraceable tax dollars, the same groups which profit from the Cannabis laws, ( DEA, CIA) sought out other markets to expand to. The number one drug they found was Opium, grown in backwoods conditions in the worst economies in the world. Before they invaded the Middle East to steal the Opium crops, wreck the lives of poor peasant farmers, and start the bloody conflicts we now are having, they made sure we would see the entire wars overseas as "Based on oil". So that they would be once again untraceable.

[...] The Drug War vs the Bill of Rights [...]

Few if any understand.
The missed date is 1933 when The USA was declared 'insolvent' and became a debtor/pauper nation.
This caused the advent of The UCC (uniform commercial code).
It was at this time that all common laws were held invalid and maritime law birthed the bastard statute law.
Our Native American authored Constitution was declared without 'force' and the country came under international law through a meeting of all law practitioners of any standing.
Remembering that 'freedom comes from the barrel of a gun', implies the force required to oppose the force used by our own government in its activities to secure its own power base.
Instead of anarchy, I propose we modify our present system as radically as it takes in order to reinstate the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and common law.
Further, the states with the determination, resolve, and guts, that take a real stand against the stolen powers of our federal government, should be supported.
One or two, won't do. It will take at least five or more states. Tennessee seems to be willing to walk point in this effort.
However, if it is the only state to take such drastic action, We The People will need to stand with their people and our collective resolution.
At the point the action is finalized, I intend to come to the aid of our countrymen.
I suggest all who can, do likewise.

Good courageous article. Either we respect and follow the law or we don't. Do gooders on both the Left and the Right have de-constructed the constitution in order to implement their preferences. If a State decides that consumption of a particular substance is illegal, that's within their authority. If a State decides to restrict a the Rights of a Citizen as acknowledged in the Bill of Rights, that is illegal.
Too often we see uneducated groups using the Federal Government as a political hammer for social, religious, racial, economic reasons; these groups are destroying the Rule of Law, formenting problems for all citizens.

JOBS PROGRAMS
The drug war and the regulatory war are now jobs programs. Example: D.A.R.E. is taught to 36 million students a year at a cost of $1.3 billion with zero impact on the use of alcohol or drugs. It's founders even acknowlege that it's theories were off base, and yet it trundles on soaking up resources and keeping folks employed. Not PC to shut it down. Better to be ineffectual than to acknowledge the impotence and do nothing. Besides, what would that constituancy then do?
You don't just shut down a $40 billion dollar a year industry, "fighting" drugs. That would be pant-load of solar panel builders and we just don't have the market for it. Can't put all those people on the govenment dole doing nothing. They are currrently being paid by the government anyway, but this keeps them occupied. Even with the expanding number of regulations and regulators, it would not keep them busy. (Sorry, this is the Department of Inhaling. The Department of Exhaling is down the hall.)
