Good for them! Using drugs really is a matter of personal choice, not an excuse for the nanny state to lock up literally millions of people. Drugs are bad but the cure has been worse than the disease.

This story is nothing more than public relations propaganda. Obama says it himself with his refusal to legalize and regulate drugs.

Does the individual own themself or are citizens of this country property of the state? It is a yes or no question with crystal clear implications for drug policy.

Individuals who own themselves get to decide what chemicals they put into their own body. If the citizens are property (ie slaves) of the state then the state gets to decide what chemicals the citizenry is allowed to put into their bodies.

What is it Obama, are the citizens property of the state? If not stop treating them as such and legalize and regulate drugs. The truth is the elite see the citizenry as property, as slaves, of the state, they just won't openly admit that to the public.
