A really good talk. Enough to evoke a sense of history from before the war on drugs and all the bullshit of the Reagan era and how far we have fallen...

What wasn't mentioned was the metamorphosis of the war on drugs into the war on terror which has been conducted on a global scale with nearly the same social institutionalization of the military into a drug war police force.
