Snorting Coke Off A Hooker's Tit at the Cockfight

     Libertarians want all the "victimless" crimes to be legal.  The London Economist (boo! the war in Iraq! boo London Economist) has an official policy of LED, Legalization, Education, Discouragement, and they run favorable stories about how Amsterdam deals with the issue.

     I think that drugs that kill brain cells in order to work (e.g. Cocaine, Inhalants) aren't the same as other types of drugs.

     Regardless, there are some massive, decades-long conflicts funded by drugs in the Andes and Hindu Kush.  Having the U.S. enforce its morality abroad kills foreigners dead.  So, I am quite pleased to read that Evo Morales of Bolivia is booting the DEA.  In a different version of the story, it is noted that "The DEA has not been officially notified of any suspension or expulsion, spokesman Garrison Courtney said Saturday."  What's he waiting for, a boot-print in his derriere?
