The right-wing Drug Free America Foundation, which campaigns for draconian drug policies, evolved from Mel Sembler's Straight, Inc. "rehab" programs that were responsible for countless instances of abuse of teenagers.
DFAF lies. And it lies a lot. Many folks who have kept an eye on the failed drug war have reported on it.
Now DFAF is imposing itself on Massachusetts, where there's a sensible referendum on the ballot to decriminalize small amounts of marijuana. DFAF is attacking the referendum by saying it's financed by out-of-state contributors.
Then what the fuck do you think DFAF is? They're based way over in Florida!
Not like I trusted the DFAF liars anyway, after discovering what a debacle Straight, Inc. (whose methods still influence youth confinement gulags) was.

Yep, DFAF sucks and we need to look closely at their track record. Whoever becomes president should dismantle the DFAF and end this ridiculous idea of a drug war. Might happen....
