Drug warrior says cops are on meth

Now the apologists for the failed War on Drugs think the police are meth heads too?

Hey, the drug warriors are the ones claiming it. I'm not the one who said it.

With Kentucky seriously considering a bill to make over-the-counter Claritin a prescription drug - a policy that's failed to stem the outbreak of meth labs in other states - a lot of folks are on the lookout against this creeping tyranny. Even police are starting to come out against this bill, because it's been so ineffective elsewhere.

But a few people still don't get it, and they claim anybody who dares to oppose this bill is involved with meth themselves. Actually, meth makers don't object to this bill at all, since they'll find ways around it like they always do. Still, drug war partisans are mighty uproarious when they know they might not get their way. Here's what one of them posted about this bill on a news site's comment section:

"it isnt gonna hurt the honest people at all but it will help stop the drug problem if u disagree with this u are on meth or makin meth at least give the government a chance to stop htis or stop the chance your children will get hooked on meth and thats the way it is thank you"

So now the police are "on meth or makin meth"? That's what that person is saying - for the cops are against this bill just like almost everybody else is. According to the person who wrote that illegible harangue, 90% of the public is "on meth or makin meth."

If I'm "on meth or makin meth" just because I oppose a bill that will cost me an untold amount of time and money by forcing me to see a doctor to get a prescription for an over-the-counter drug each time my allergies flare up, doesn't that mean everybody else is too?

I love how they say to "give the government a chance" to stop over-the-counter allergy drugs - when they're complaining the rest of the time about government being too big. To them, the main purpose of government is to control what adults do in private.

The reeking stupidity of the War on Drugs is unending. The more it sinks in that it's losing support, the more irrational its remaining followers get.
