Just spotted this example of screwed-up priorities over at The Agitator:
Federal drug agents fanned out across San Diego on Monday, clamping down on medical marijuana dispensaries that had been doling out marijuana to sick and dying patients.
I realize that even though medical marijuana is legal in the state of California, it’s still illegal under federal law. But don’t all these federal agents have something better to do? At a time when we’re still being told to give up some of our freedoms for the war on terror, this seems like a wasteful use of federal agents’ time.
At any time, it’s cruel and heartless, and it shows a remarkable lack of perspective on the part of the Department of Justice.
