This guy says it all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWA8upoFJ5A 1972: 179,000 people in jail today: 2.3 million (70% black) The war on drugs needs to end, more so than the war in iraq.
I never understand this. How much does the war on drugs REALLY effect how many people are in prison? I would understand if he had some percentages of how many of them were in for which drug charges, but I mean, whoopdy doo, we've got more criminals... I'm sure drugs are ONE cause, but we really can't blame the massive increase entirely on unjust punishment for drugs...
man hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi's have been killed, millions more injured or relocated in a matter of 5 years so i disagree with you that it needs to end more than the iraq war but definitely fuck the war on drugs.
