Drug Policy Debate

Via Drug War Rant: If you've got a tv in the kitchen, check out C-span today at 1:00 pm Eastern, for a "drug policy debate between William Bennett (moralizing drug warrior...) and Kurt Schmoke (former Mayor of Baltimore and drug policy reform advocate)."

Related: In Los Angeles this week, U.S. District Court Judge Howard Matz sentenced three men who distributed marijuana to the sick to probation and community service, departing downward from guidelines of 30 plus months. Matz praised the men's work and called the prosecution "badly misguided."

Update: Read Drug War Rant's Thanksgiving Day story--as Walter in Denver says, be thankful if nothing like this has happened to your family.
