Current & former DEA heads are scrambling to catch up with the movement to legalize..

A letter was addressed to Attorney General Eric Holder by current and former DEA heads to challenge California’s legalization proposition if it passes in November.

During a press conference, with said DEA flunkies, Daniel Pacheco, a Columbian student from Georgetown U and member of Students for Sensible Drug Policy, asked Gil Kerlikowske (Obama’s new Drug Czar) what his thoughts are to Mexican leaders’ assertions that the US legalize Cannabis in order to deprive drug cartels of revenue.

Gil, instead of defending prohibition, quibbled over facts that were later confirmed by testimony to the Senate from both FBI & DEA as true.

“I cannot recall any previous collaboration of former DEA administrators of this kind. If our national marijuana prohibition policy were not so clearly failing and not so close to being replaced with real controls, they would never have mobilized in this way to defend it. If Prop. 19 were not proposing a system of control that is so logical and straight forward that it is widely politically attractive, they would not be mobilizing this kind of collaboration.” – NORML Deputy Director Paul Armentano

It is because of groups like SSDP (students for Sensible Drug Policy) the Just Say Now coalition who are on the war front, creating awareness and bringing supporters together that will end this senseless and failing war on drugs.
