Whaaaaat? You mean to tell me that the guys whose entire existence is justified by locking up poor people for drug use, whose "justice system" is just a front for legal slavery, ran an "anti" drug campaign that maybe wasn't super good? Almost like that was... the whole point?
Even better was the fact the fact that this same president was also once the head of the CIA .... the same organization which most likely still included people he knew to work with South American drug cartels to initiate the Crack Cocaine epidemic of the 90s in order to fund their wars and conflicts in Central America.
It pisses me off so much that so few people remember this history of America ..... on one hand they claim the moral high ground of wanting people to stop doing drugs .... when they, the actual government spy agency, were the ones who created the conditions for more drugs to be sold on the street!!!!!
I've said it a bunch of times on this thread because it's important to me and should be important to everyone else ... look up the story of Gary Webb
