Been reading all the threads here about what's schedule what here and there but it seems to me that the problem lies in the root cause of how certain medicines are regulated/controlled by the government. I read this book called " drug Crazy" at http://libertary.com which lets you read entire books for free. Reading the book by Mike Gary or whatever really opened up my eyes as to what is ...
Ahhhh my favorite topic. If people really knew the true effects of the drug war and who it actually benefits they would be shocked. Stop the Drug War is a website loaded with information. It's free and its sure worth looking at. To see the true cost of what all this means click here Drug War Clock
The ONLY thing thats going to change the war on drugs is Police Officers stepping up and being real men/women and saying "I will not enforce unconstitutional laws, and almost all drug laws are unconstitutional and cause more harm than good for the public" But unfortunately police officers take pride in ruining people lives. If an officer makes a bust and arrest a NON-violent heroin or pill ...
weve talked about this before. unfortunately the police, legislators, district attorneys that know this is a moral issue. only speak out once there careers are over. ( www.Leap.com ) know one is going to step up and say im not doing my job today. because there just following the Rules and the Rules are what needs to be changed. unfortunately the people we "elect" to change the Rules ...
uh... I came here to say something about the "War on Drugs"... but come to think of it, I'd be here all night and still not be done ranting..... there is nothing whatsoever about it that is "sane". But real quick... I believe it boils down to the same things that just about everything else does... money, power and control - not necessarily in any order. The beaucrats can't be powerful unless ...

Three things come to mind: 1). High PAY for DEA, FDA, LE enforcement and higher ranking officers. 2). Confiscated property income. 3). "side" income for the "few" less than scrupulous agents. I'm sure there are more. Those just "pop up" in my mind. Originally Posted By: meonlyits How exactly? All I see, is how they spend tax dollars to pursue the war on drugs.
Got it now. I worked as a contractor for the Federal Govt for years. EPA was a big client. One thing I learned was that if an agency did not spend all of their allotted $ w/in the budget year, they lost it. AND they had trouble getting the same amount of money given to them the following year. Close to the end of budget year, my boss would figure out who had money left and we would go ...
Damn Tone, no wonder you are depressed. I do find your perspective very interesting though and it has some truth to it. Wish you would not disappear again. I think we can benefit from your ideas. What makes you think that CIA participates in drug trafficking? I think there may be some of that as part of undercover operations but that is just to win the trust of those they are trying to find and stop. I have heard Afghanistan is really about...
Any Atty worth his salt will get you off on a "pill counting Geastapo". Wait till the court date and all the Atty has to say is "BUT...Yo honor, He weren't carrying ALL his meds with him, Just what he needed for the trip. The rest were in another bottle at home which he's since taken as prescribed....POOF...The Brown shirted Geastapo loses his case. Originally Posted By: MdtnBill Make sure you have the...
OMG! I'm about to take a drive through Ohio.......I have about 10 different prescriptions I have to take every day, 1 controlled, the others are things like synthroid and insulin. Now there is NO WAY I could carry my "proper" box of insulin with the label on it as that stuff has to be refrigerated! I can only take out one pen at a time to keep on me. Are they going to hassle me for this? Also I keep a little pill...

The laws do vary from state to state, but the thing that is becoming the common way for L.E> to make arrest even with proper prescription info, container, counts etc, is the so called "trained observations" of the officer that can cuff anyone he wants on suspecion of driving under the influence.Its alot like public intoxication except that it generally applies to drivers that they wnat to arrest or detain but...

I agree. If there was a script for the meds than the charges would be thrown out after proof was shown to the judge. No one says you have to keep them in so and so bottle. When I travel I just mix them all together in a vitamin bottle and never had a problem (I did take a label once in my pocket). My husband has always done the same thing with adderall, ambian, blood pressure meds and tyroid meds. Airports do not care about private useage...
