21. More Democrats Need To Stand Up Against The Drug War
Thu Apr 3, 2014, 08:25 PM
Apr 2014

Too many Dems are in the pockets of the banks and drug war industrial complex. Not nearly as many as Republicans but we need to separate even further from them. Democrats in the Justice Dept like Lanny Breuer made a mockery of decency, justice and fairness by letting HSBC bankers walk free for knowingly laundering billions for murderous cartels while targeting harmless US marijuana entrepreneurs even in states where it's legal. It's beyond disgusting and anyone on our team participating in these kinds of frauds should be purged immediately. The times aren't a changin'...they have already changed but greedy sellouts are holding the new paradigm back. The Bidens and Breuer types are not merely antiquated but are actively supporting criminal behavior while pretending to help families. The drug war(all drugs) had damaged families, justice, truth and wellness more than any drug itself could ever do. Time for talk and rants is over...call your representatives and hold their feet to the fire. We don't need more studies, waiting periods or moratoriums...ACT NOW...please.
