One thing that occurred to me about the prosecutions is that this is a great way to make sure that cops have the opportunity to prosecute lots of white, upper-middle-class folks in their war on drugs to make it seem, you know, less racist (not that I believe it is) while not seeming to let up one whit on the "war on drugs." That probably explains the zeal with which the Dems are signing on.
Interesting. Though the promoters are often non-upper class, non-whites.
