Why are Americans addicted to illegal drugs?
Question by : Why are Americans addicted to illegal drugs?
I mean everything in the world comes here Colombian cocaine, Mexican Marijuana, Home cooked(US) meth and everything. I mean drugs are demonized in Latin American countrys and communities and the people usually know who does it and they stay away from them. I just watched PBS FRONTLINE “The Meth Epidemic” and all thr users they feature where Americans that use and produce meth. They even used to go to Mexico to make it there and sell it here. Then the Mexican Government just banned the importation of pseudoephedrine medicines because the usage is was so insignificant, I mean when Mexican people have a cold they make remedies they don’t go to the store to get stuff like that. I mean why do Americans complain so much about Mexicans and Colombians
producing drugs and drug cartels and poisoning our children when they are the ones supporting that industry.

Tommy Chong ‘Prison Labor is Slavery’ – American Drug War – The Last White Hope a film by Kevin Booth John O’Neill Project Part 15: The Mother of All Conspiracies – The Global Drug Trade In this project, I will post supporting documentation for all of the points made in the movie, Who Killed John O’Neill. Below is a list of all of the clips from that movie with all of the parts from Part 15: The Mother of All Conspiracies – The Global Drug Trade. For Part 15, I used the 2007 Documentary by Kevin Booth, American Drug War – The Last White Hope. One can conclude from this documentary that the quagmire known as the War on Drugs has only created more problems than solutions, more addiction than recovery, and more drugs and gangs in society. I am so outraged about the drug war, that I am willing to devote my entire life to fighting it. So if there is someone out there that needs a soldier in the war against the war on drugs, contact me. A note about the titles in this series: I tried to maintain a system of naming clips according to their individual points made. If I failed to do so, it is only because the inconclussive nature of taking a clip out of the context of the entire film, and I appologize. 01 who was john o’neil 02 CIA Created Islamic Fundamentalism 03 Al Qaeda was an Intelligence Ops from the Start 04 ISI + CIA = The Death of Daniel Pearl 05 In a Post 911 World – You Cannot Trust Anybody 06 Wasting your Life with these Conspiracy Theories 07 Further Investigation into 911 is Required 08 Controlled …
