The War on Drugs is a war on liberty and that simple truth is demonstrated almost daily on the streets and in homes around our nation.

This isn't an attempt to say drugs are good or that drugs should be sold to children or that we should happily give over our lives to getting high, anymore than I'd claim alcohol is good, should be sold to children and we should spend our lives getting drunk. Obviously I don't endorse any of that.

And I'm not interested in the usual and prosaic "so you want our children to have access to drugs?" response. Wake up, will you . . . they already have access to drugs in quantities and types you can't imagine. The War on Drugs hasn't stopped that in the least, nor will it ever. All it has done is drive up the price.
