The ridiculous failure of a drug war trudges on here in America. Now researchers at Washington State University are working hard to… CURE CANCER!
Nope.
Save Babies from SIDS!
Nope.
Feed homeless people! Solve the energy crisis! Help old ladies cross the street!
Nope, nope, and extra nope.
They are developing a handheld portable device to screen people’s breath for THC, the chemical that a News10 Rochester reporter so astutely reported, “makes you high” in the video clip below.
After a second round of testing, these researchers, who apparently hate themselves and will do anything for state grants and a pat on the head by Big Brother, plan to put these in the hands of police sometime in 2016 so the failed and ridiculous war on marijuana can continue to generate revenue while not making America a safer place like police are supposed to do in the states that haven’t already legalized it.

This reminds me of this quote from Atlas Shrugged, by Ayn Rand in 1957: ” There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted – And you create a nation of lawbreakers – and then you cash in on the guilt. Now that’s the system, Mr. Rearden, that’s the game, and once you understand it, you’ll be much easier to deal with.” — from Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand (1957). This device should NOT be added to the ongoing harassment of individuals in the failed ‘war on drugs’ … anything these people come up with always seems to have to do with control and manipulation of others for profit, and this device is no exception. Bad idea, because they will escalate the rationale for use and create yet another punitive aspect to aid the profit-making potential with society. A good rule of thumb is that if a faction of society in control ‘lets’ people do something or gives people money for something, do not accept it or buy into it, because the historical track record says they will eventually use that fact to control or manipulate whomever participates in it. A simple purview of history makes this clear.
This is a pHARMaceutical corporate fascist war on drugs because of the multiple curative effects of the cheap ubiquitous properties of cannabinoids…+ they need more unsuspecting innocents to fulfill their penal system obligatory contracts for slave labor…& general FEAR harassment upon the US public to add more pressure from their burgeoning full blown neo feudal POLICE STATE of total totalitarian hegemony…do you want fries with that?
Or they can just bypass the whole pretense and shoot you in the face, ’cause nobody will convict a hero (Deputy Todd Raible) in the war on drugs for murdering the enemy.
