Pot Prohibition Is the Cornerstone of a Police State   Updated at 12:10 PM
   

AlterNet / By Harvey Wasserman

Pot Prohibition Is the Cornerstone of a Police State
Any law that allows the easy incarceration of any citizen any time those in power want to do it is the ultimate enemy of democracy.

October 31, 2010 |


The simple truth about America's marijuana prohibition: any law that allows the easy incarceration of any citizen any time those in power want to do it is the ultimate enemy of democracy. With 800,000 annual arrests over an herb used by tens of millions of Americans, it is the cornerstone of a police state.

Mind you: this is the crew that would take away your right to defend yourself from criminals, invaders and tyrants so that the only people who are armed are the police and then they will write, enforce and adjudicate laws based on your political compliance.

Well, you know, people simply avoid breaking the law by smoking pot, the police could no longer arrest them for that offense.   :thatsright:

I would probably actually start laughing if they tried to arrest me for a pot related offense  :rotf:

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
