Jury Duty

Earlier this year, I mentioned Jeff Trigg's experience with jury duty, and how telling the truth (that he believed in the principle of jury nullification) caused him to be excused. (Parts 1, 2, and 3 )

Now Baylen Linnekin has gone through a similar experience in being called for jury duty for a drug case.

Read his story. What would you have done?

Fighting Drug Abuse Requires Ending Prohibition

A nice little overview article at About by Andrew Somers is now online: How do we end the War on Drugs?. The recommendations:
  1. End the black market by ending prohibition.
  2. Regulate the manufacture, sale, and distribution of soft substances using the alcohol model.
  3. Use taxation, and spread the revenues so generated to education and treatment efforts.
  4. Provide addicts with clean supplies to demolish the black market, and greatly increase the availability of treatment options for them in a non-criminal setting.

There's a war going on. It destroys lives and families, spawns violence, suspends civil liberties, tramples on the infirm, locks up millions of peaceful citizens, costs billions, and subjugates reason with fear. This blog looks at the front lines of the drug war, with news, analysis, and the occasional rant.
