Cold medicine law causes meth labs in cars

Will their Nazis shut their damn yips now about how they think the new laws against cold and allergy medicine are so great?

Following the passage of clearly unconstitutional state and federal laws limiting access to allergy and cold medicine, only the innocent have suffered. Predictably, these laws have failed to accomplish their stated purpose of curtailing meth labs. In fact, methamphetamine labs have proliferated more and more since the laws - which are today's equivalent of the Rockefeller drug laws - took effect.

In Leesburg, Indiana, police recently found 2 people passed out in a car that contained a meth lab. So now, instead of confining the labs to just a house to contaminate that immediate area, these death traps are now on wheels so the chemical contamination is spread far and wide.

Fine mess you've gotten us in now, Decider.

While moms have been sent to prison under these laws for buying too much medicine for their sick kids, the laws have (predictably) failed to stop those who might use the medicine to cook meth - because they just get it elsewhere.

I know the drug warriors are going to come here and babble about "prima facie" (and get laughed at for it like what happened on the old blog), but they've got nothing to stand on.

Any presidential candidate who doesn't want to repeal the federal law on cold medicine and require the states to repeal their illegal laws shouldn't be taken seriously.
