Ron Paul Calls for End to Drug War

Uploaded by: urWURLDnow
Video Description:
Ron Paul took an opportunity during the PBS Republican Presidential Debates, moderated by Tavis Smiley, to call for end to the Drug War.
"Prohibition didn't work and prohibition on drugs hasn't worked either." Ron Paul cited the unfair disparity in the percentage of blacks imprisoned over drug offenses in proportion with the relative percentage of black drug users, giving example to the system's racial bias. Paul also noted the m
oney wasted on the so-called 'War on Drugs' since the 70s when it's clear that drug use and prison capacity has only swelled in wake of the profit driven motives of the "war."

It's too bad Ron Paul didn't get far with his campaign. He's got some good ideas. He's so right about the drug war. Prohibition just caused worse crime, and so is prohibition on drugs.

he wants to stop Prohibition on drugs, just like we stopped Prohibition on alcohol. it doesn't work and leads to organized crime. alcoholism is addiction to alcohol. we don't treat it as a crime but as a disease. it's the same approach we need to take with all drug addiction.

The selectively enforced Drug War is the last form of systematic racism left in America. It's a real killer of a con job. You can't fight a war against abstract concepts, dummies.

Just because he knows that the federal government has no right to usurp state drug laws doesn't mean he doesn't personally care about the laws at the state level. But being a U.S. Representative, he has no authority to dictate those views to the states. Make no mistake, he does "care" about state drug laws.
Peace bro.

Minted5555...I was a card carrying neocon until I was reintroduced to my roots of Constitutional Republicanism. For a time post 9/11, I left those roots. But once the anger of 9/11 faded and I saw the neocons and neocrats eliminating Habeas Corpus, waging illegal wars against imaginary threats, approving torture and spending us into oblivion, I came back...
and Ron Paul was still there, spreading the message of personal liberty, peace and prosperity he always has.
