ssdp.org — In what's being called the "Drug War Draft," President Bush's policies deny financial aid to students with drug convictions but make it easy for them to enlist in the military. A group of college students made this video that points out the hypocrisy of the Drug War Draft.

And I am sure that you have evidence to back up this claim that you know the feelings of 99.999% of Americans on drug laws.

I really have a hard time believing that anyone thinks that forest rangers don't smoke lots of pot. It is a very poor policy. We have two Presidents that admitted on tape to smoking pot, but anyone who works under them can't do the same. Its a complete hypocrisy.

stereotype / assumption: Trains are deadly. if I stand in front of a train, it will come down the track, run me down, flatten and kill me. Go prove me wrong.

Ok. I just stood in front of a train. It did not run me down or kill me. You know why? Because no one was in it. Stereotypes and assumptions are not a good basis for any decision or policy. You were wrong about the train because you assumed certain details were true when they were not, just like how you are wrong about the drug policy because you make assumptions about things you don't understand.

I don't understand what the problem is. It seems a lot of the same people who are mad because the military discriminates against homosexuals are also made because it doesn't discriminate against people who've used marijuana.

They aren't being told they can't go to school, they just don't get to spend other people's money on their education.
