The War on Some Drugs stikes again Challenging it it court would be too much work and not likely to succeed so why not just throw some doctors in jail and scare the rest off.
From AP via MSNBC:
NEW YORK - The federal government has acknowledged plans to prosecute doctors who prescribe marijuana and other illegal drugs to seriously ill people under new laws approved by voters in California and Arizona, The New York Times reported Monday. Authorities plan to prosecute some doctors who help supply such drugs to patients and strip their prescription licenses, officials told the paper. Voters in Arizona and California last month approved measures that relax restrictions on the medical use of some illegal drugs. The plan to move against doctors follows the Justice Department's decision not to challenge the new state laws in court. Federal officials also plan to launch a public-relations campaign to remind Americans of the dangers of illegal drugs. So remind me again, what exactly is the moral difference between Prozac and THC? regards, -Blake
