Video of the Day: Is the "War on Drugs" BS?

Note: Apologies for the severe lack of posts yesterday and today. Regular posting should resume on Wednesday.

In the meantime, U.S. drug czar John Walters criticized Congressional Democrats who supposedly want to cut the multi-billion dollar counternarcotics aid program known as Plan Colombia. "It's hard to explain what they're thinking," said Walters in this interview with The Washington Times.

Hence, our VOTD is the first part of the "War on Drugs" episode of TV show Bullshit!, hosted by Penn and Teller. The program argues that the "War on Drugs" is farcical and needs to be scrapped.

What do you think? (Video link)

Ok, well I've been saying the War on Drugs is BS for years. Pen & Teller should give me my props! Ha, I'm just glad somebody is shouting a little louder now. What we need is an Al Gore for legalization and for certain Americans to grow up and stop expecting the government to hold their hands and make decisions for them.
