Drug War Roundup III A 70% increase in the price of cigarettes seems to have
dropped the teenage smoking rate by 7%. On May 15 you heard the Drug War Czar say anti-drug ads were a
flop. He announced a
new campaign the next day. San Franciscan test subjects in a medical marijuana study say they're given "
low-potency ditch weed." Subjects in a similiar study in Canada say the weed they're given is way
too good. Lastly, Canada is debating whether to
decriminalize smoking pot on the heels of a committee conclusion that it doesn't lead to hard drug use, committing more crimes or driving fast.
