COSTLY DRUG WAR

Trafficking in human lives has become the dark enterprise of the
justice system. It was invented by legislatures that place the most
sought-after "controlled substances" in the hands of criminals to
supply and distribute, with mandatory sentencing punishments that
increase the risks and therefore the costs of the "crime."

Prices go way up -- marijuana in 1937 sold at every general store for
$1 an ounce -- "Indian hemp" from India's stock was "Indica," the same
skunk-weed of legendary fame.

Compare that with street prices today of $400 to $600 an ounce.
Prohibition causes shoplifting, burglary, robbery, even murder over
the money that controls the uncontrollable traffic caused by
legislating political crimes. Enforcement makes crime pay. Governments
become criminal operations! Elected officials inherit more than the
office. Some conflicted interests enter their service.

Every school child knows "Green Harvest" has a cookie jar, and still
officials use the word "transparency" to cover the cover-up.
Transparency in doublespeak means also that we can see through it!

Twenty-five million prisoners of a war fought against our own children
of three generations! The commerce of lives must end or the consent of
the governed will too.

The mayor, the prosecutor and the police are posing as public safety
defenders, but their transparency is obvious.

Ballot question No. 1 is a charter amendment that is more important to
obey than obstructing law and order for a corrupt public policy that
enforces laws that invent the crime they pretend to solve.

Friends, for the love of life, there are more important issues to
invest our treasury, our insight and our inspiration than the
invention and further promotion of this criminal intention.
