(Update: Two hours into this diary and as is typical, the diary brings out opponents of the War on Drugs, but very few people who favor prohibition respond. It's a debate that is worth having as there has to be a better way of minimizing the ill effects of drugs than simply handing the drug trade off to criminals that are given huge incentives to murder people like this Marine's family. Prohibitionists, please help us understand your side!!!)
This will be short and is more of rant than a well thought out diary but for all you people out there that still favor the "war on drugs" please read this briefest of articles from CNN.
