Goldwater libertarians, and I know a few, may not be pro drug, but they ARE against the drug war, pointing directly there as a big reason for the authoritarian fed, and I have to agree.  TWoD turned a lot of em off, and I am getting turned off too. Turns out they were right.  It has lost us a lot of liberty, and didn't work to boot.

Perhaps we should have listened to those libertarians who were screaming, "Federalism!" at the top of their lungs. They are the purists when it comes to the Constitution.

IF the 'drug war' had started with securing the borders, the alleged need to trash the 4th and other Amendments would never have arisen.
The key to that is securing the borders, stopping the influx. Domestic operations can be taken down from there, but with literally tons of that stuff coming in from all over, it's like pissing on a house fire. Some people stay employed, stuff gets taken, opportunities for corruption are rampant, and like you said, the whole WoD is ineffective overall, despite all the seizures.

In the meantime, you can't get the good cold medicine, and ffs don't buy organic solvents in bulk, even if you have a legitimate use for them or you are going to be shook down at some level.

ROFL!

Some of you guys here have been waiting 5 years for this article.

Pathetic....if this were a Schlichter column, it would have been locked by now.

And now the seizures drive the deal... What is left of justice when you can be arrested and hauled to jail, and your property seized and sold before you are even convicted. And we all know Columbian grease in DC is what keeps that southern border open. Nobody's going to give up something that lucrative.  And that in the end is what the WoD has given us.
