is taken from a Wall Street Journal piece from July 19, 2002.

Let's see, the RAVE ACT says we can't protest against drug laws and now anyone that would vote in a "bad" way loses their vote???
Now, how did Stalin do that purge thing, again???

Reason Magazine ran this article on battlefield conversions in the War on Drugs. The author interviews a Police officer, a Federal Agent, and a Judge. Salient comments from the Fed:
I was involved as an expert witness in the Donald Carlson case, which was on 60 Minutes. In that case, a multi-agency task force, outfitted in high-tech guerrilla gear, crashed into the home of a Fortune 500 executive and shot him down in his own living room on the basis of the word of an uncorroborated informant. Nobody was penalized for it. In fact, the people who did it were eventually promoted.

In this article at K5, the author writes Lately the Police in Austin, Texas have found a new way to trample on civil liberties, inspired by the success of their colleagues in Florida and Louisiana. In an effort to crack down on drug use associated with the electronic music scene, they have forced venue owners and production crews to enforce drug laws at their events using methods that would be illegal if used by police themselves.
