Maybe Greenpeace should focus their message more on policymakers.
Agree 100%. Our country could stand to do a few more drugs anyway. Besides the war on drugs is accomplishing nothing other than lining corrupt officers' pockets and screwing people who actually do work their asses off AND export a product that people actually want. Not to mention the ridiculously horrible things we do to these supposed "criminals" when we catch them in other countries where their deeds are not even illegal.
