We have an historic opportunity to change drug policy right now because three major events are happening simultaneously.

Your membership in StoptheDrugWar.org will enable us to reach people in communities all across our nation and the world. I encourage you to join us today as we launch our exciting new 2009 "Changing Minds, Laws & Lives" campaign.
Now... here are the three converging events that have us so optimistic about 2009:
First, the Obama administration is doing a pretty good job of following through on its campaign promises for drug law reform — not perfect, but pretty good. Second, the economic crisis is forcing all government agencies — including correctional systems — to rethink their financial priorities. And third, we keep breaking visitor records at StoptheDrugWar.org. As the world's #1 source for news, information and activism promoting sensible drug law reform, we know that the more visitors we get, the more we're building the anti-prohibition movement.
Your participation at this point in history is very important, and I'd like to send you some free gifts to show our appreciation.
For a contribution of $36, you can choose either of our new StoptheDrugWar.org T-shirts pictured above — "Prohibition Doesn't Work" or "STOP" (click for an enlarged view). For a gift of $60 or more, you get both shirts. And for a contribution of $100 or more, you also get your choice of any single item from the StoptheDrugWar.org inventory.
Your membership today will make an immediate impact by helping StoptheDrugWar.org (DRCNet):
- Produce more internet videos like "SWAT Raids -- No One is Safe" and fund more actions like our upcoming News Rewriting Project.
- Grow the groundswell for change by helping grassroots organizations — our movement's "boots on the ground" — reach out to more people.
- Pressure the Obama Administration to make good on all of its promises and lobby Congress to make smart funding choices by providing the truth about the Drug War.
- Break more records*! With each improvement to our web site, we become an even more powerful resource for anyone (including media and politicians) to find information about the Drug War.
What you and I and our friends are doing together is working. We can't back off now. By taking advantage of the opportunity we have during this pro-reform climate, we can change minds, change laws and, most importantly, change good people's lives.
Thank you very much,
David Borden
Executive Director, StoptheDrugWar.org (DRCNet)
P.S. It's time to stop wasting time, money and good people's lives. Please join us in "Changing Minds, Laws & Lives" by adding your support to StoptheDrugWar.org while we have this unique opportunity. Thank you!

DEA doesn't get the message.
Why is the DEA continuing to raid medical marijuana dispensaries if they obey the state law?
Obama should throw the current SF case out. He should also tell the trigger happy DEA agents that if they don't stop raiding medical marijuana dispendsaries, they will be fired.

Dumb Evil Assholes understand one thing.... violence!
Q. Why is the DEA continuing to raid medical marijuana dispensaries if they obey the state law?
A. Because there is no violence to counter the DEA's violence! Trust me I know cops... like sharks they don't like being punched in the nose... its alien to them and very effective.
It's why exercising our 2nd amendment rights is so important in a criminal based christian society like ours.
Like all wars I'll bet the majority of the dea gumps are god fearing rednecks... and are just dying to smash one of their beer cans in your face!
Beer... fueling American Rednecks since... well... forever!
Truth is Treason in the Kingdom of Lies
Forced religious cults such as the D.E.A. end when forced to
Only physical removal of these forced religious cult leaders will stop them. They don't listen to anyone even though the majority of the planets people see the Prohibitionists for what they are; a terrorist dictatorship and fraudulent occupation of everyone's land which forces a terror and war based economy on all by posing as legitimate law makers and enforcers. But that is just what bullies do. The proof that prohibition is a forced fake religion and global corporate industrial espionage scam is public record folks.
Unite and Fight: harness the power of the internet
I would like to invite and encourage everyone to:
join Yahoo! Group cannabislegalization
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/cannabislegalization/
join Facebook group Legalize Marijuana
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=5506236684

and sign the "Legalize marijuana and end the senseless "War on Drugs'" petition at:
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/26/legalize-marijuana-and-end-the-senseless-war-on-drugs
We need to harness the power of these and the other great networking tools of the internet to unite the fragments of our movement, not only in common purpose, but in making coordinated plans for the future.
Or we could just sit on our butts and wait for that Knock On The Door and find out the hard way that it's not the Pizza Guy.
The problem is terrorists don't honor votes or petitions
Terrorists drug runners need a war against drugs because the violent double standards raise their insider traded stock fraud portfolios while ignoring the majority of voters on strike. less than 10 % of the population votes whether by force or choice. show them you mean business votestrike.org hell no we wont vote until war criminals are removed from power.
