You gives us the myths and we bust them. We prefer myths that require us to smoke as much weed as possible.
Well, in closing, I want to, And I want to point out that our website, org, we produce the World's Eating Drug Policy newsletter, The Drug War Chronicle. And so if you have websites out there, don't just take a feed of drug, Actually take your feed from our site because we simply scrutinize those stories a lot more heavily and you're not going to get a bad story What's more is that, I'm glad you're hearing you have learned about it, but I really think that's the key. There are certain myths, I'll tell you, that we're not going to be able to overnight or even perhaps even in 10 or 20 years or ever get rid of this. The gateway one is just so pervasive, Maybe what we always talk about that in drug policy reform, there are 30% of people that we're never going to reach. They are adamantly against our positions, they feel it's coming from a moral base, it's just you're not going to reach them and so they're always going to be spewing that kind of crap and there are going to be the kind of people that are with the drug, Maybe you can out there with a little laminated copies of various studies. But if you see that kind of reporting, And we also have a prohibition in media section to our website that please do frequent and add things to it. When you see someone saying something incorrect, point that out. Let people know so that they can read about it too and comment on it. It's really all about knowledge, you're educated now, I'm just hoping you're going to continue to spread the truth. Thank you very much David. Dear guard, stop the drug war. Thank you. Thank you sir. Busting myths and also establishing realities. One of the biggest myths and one of the biggest realities is one that we ourselves perpetrate and that's the somehow merely ending prohibition is all that we need to do because it's not. It's not enough. It doesn't mean anything. We can end all the drug laws now. It wouldn't change a lot because we still have racially biased law enforcement. We still have horrible social inequities. We still have massive, massive differences in access to healthcare, to education, to social capital, to economic capital and to every other thing because of the horribly ingrained racist and classist attitudes that we still have in this country. It's an awful, awful truth. But that's the other part of busting reality, of busting myths is putting forth the reality. We're busting reality. Is it passive? Yeah. It's time to bust reality. Put reality under arrest. Exactly. We'll have to watch it for a while now. At least we're going to break it down. That is what it's about. Legalization is actually an essential thing in this. One of the things that I use both for is a way to focus my passions and control my rages and to understand and distinguish between those two. I'm a social justice activist. I do what I do because I believe in a lot of very basic things about freedom and personal responsibility and about equality and all that kind of stuff. That's why I do drug policy reform because we're the bastard child of the social justice movement. And this again is the reality. The myth is that it's all about the party. It's about fun. Hey, I love to smoke pop. I love to have fun.
