Santa Cruz Raid and the War on Drugs

Don't miss Ethan Nadelman's The Hospice Raid and the War on Drugs in Alternet. We almost did, but Hamster was on top of it.

Nadelman asks a good question:

"Is the Santa Cruz raid, and more generally the war on drugs, a preview of what lies ahead in the war on terrorism? Is the future one in which increasingly empowered and emboldened federal police agencies intimidate, arrest and even terrorize not just those who pose true threats to security but also those who challenge little more than the moralistic convictions and political prejudices of power holders in the nation's capital? "

By the way, Hamster and Cursor are the two sites we check every day to see what news we've missed. And we always find something.
