DRUG TRUTH NETWORK

It's high time we end this prohibition!

We are looking for a Commander and Chief of Peace, a true servant of the people. President Obama can take a stand against oppression and tyranny or show himself to be a servant of it. Drug abuse is a medical problem, a health issue.

Most Americans realize Mexico's and our corrupt officials are in bed together! Corruption is rampant, official lawlessness rules as it did during alcohol prohibition.

Corrupt violent officials are a problem around the world; people just disappear. Amnesty International's statistics on the "disappeared" around the globe are very disquieting. Murderers and violent sexual predators roam free, while we police nonviolent medicinal, recreational and religious drug use.

Good people everywhere including Americans deserve better protection from violence, especially our children and babies! We deserve better protection from fraud, especially government moralizing and propaganda.

Punishing individuals for making a safer health choice in marijuana or cannabis today is absolute madness. Taking children from the homes of parents who made a safer health choice in a medicinal or recreational drug is insane policy. Taking property from these same, destroyed by government families, is legalized extortion!

About 75 years ago the call for repeal of alcohol prohibition was, "Save the children from prohibition!" Law Enforcement Against Prohibition has kicked off the 'We Can Do It Again' project, calling for an end to drug
prohibition.

Violence and corruption triggered by the drug war will end with repeal just as these policy created problems disappeared with repeal of alcohol prohibition. Downsize our big government! Servants of tyranny play on our fears to make us more accepting of their waste of our precious lives and resources.

"I want to kill Osama's fattest cash cow, eviscerate the cartels and paramilitary, eliminate the reason for which most violent street gangs exist in the US and take away our children's easy access to drugs. --- anybody who objects is a dang fool." Dean talks straight as does Dr. Ron Paul.

Save the children, just say NO to prohibition! Trigger less violence, racism, tyranny and ruined lives! We CAN do it again!

Dean Becker's is a voice of reason. And it grows stronger by the day: His Drug Truth Network consistently broadcasts facts--and tough, probing questions--that challenge our investment in the U.S.-led global War on Drugs. Dean's persistence and integrity have helped to build a large, rapidly growing audience of drug policy reformers, all of us inspired by his example.

Dean Becker's "Drug Truth Network" is an essential resource. The quality of guests, coverage of topics and consistent message that Dean brings to the table are unparalleled.

Unlike a lot of other reform oriented sites and individuals, Dean has long recognized that the entire enterprise of the Drug War needs to be completely destroyed.

Pot heads would be wise to recognize that they can play an extremely important role in ending this nonsense -- through both "coming out of the closet" and by recognizing that all people have the right to do to themselves as they wish.

Our government has been killing people in the name of "preventing" them from possibly harming themselves with the drugs they choose to play with. Legalizing pot will not put an end to that carnage.

So wake up stoners -- it isn't just about you. Listen to Dean's programs so you can learn the entire truth. Then tell everyone you can.

Dean Becker has been a tireless voice of reason calling out for an end to the insanity of America's failed drug policies. With a clear and precise message that the Drugwar has failed by any and all standards, Becker has supported this assertion with a near endless roster of experts. The Drug Truth Network may be one of the only sources of accurate, truthful and relevant information regarding the human suffering and gross injustices of U.S. drug policies. Dean is a fine man and the Drug Truth Network is an essential resource for anyone seriously trying to understand and oppose America's misguided drug and cannabis policies.

Dean always brings guests to the mike who are able to educate the audience. This service is needed to help articulate our position.

i thank all o you for putting time and money into the legalization of mrijuana. thanks radical russ for your great podcast!!!!

Dean Becker's DTN programming is truly one of a kind, airing vital "for the record" interviews that *need* to be listened to; nine shows a week, every week, on an incredible array of drug policy related topics that challenge the listener to do the right thing and help end America's tragic and foolhardy War on Drugs.

Dean has graciously amplified my voice by airing my ongoing series of Poppygate Reports -- the Drug Truth Network's ongoing focus on the naked hypocrisy of U.S./Afghan drug policy which is responsible for nearly a hundred million pounds of heroin entering world markets during the Bush Administration; all the while arresting millions of U.S. citizens for trivial amounts of contraband.

His wide ranging interviews, featuring victims of Drug War, scientists, legal scholars and many others, are guaranteed to challenge listeners and incite them to activism. This is not news to regular listeners, but to those who have not yet heard his shows -- listen up, learn and do something.

Thank you, Mr. Becker, for your remarkable effort and energy, and thank you, High Times, for this important profile in courage.

Dean does a fine job in getting the truth out to his listeners. With his work and others it will soon be so that politicians can no longer ignore that the "war on drugs" is in fact a war on our citizens. The "war on drugs" is the best friend of the drug cartels and gangs that terrorize our streets and countries to the south of us. So a special thanks to High Times for your help. Stay safe. /tln/

Drug Truth Network is one of my biggest sources of inspiration and continues to put out quality information for the cannabis community. As a fellow radio host and pot podcaster, I'm always amazed at Dean's vast contact list for interviews, and the insightful questions from Dean and answers from guests. Keep up the good work!

Thanks much to the staff at High Times for introducing DTN and Dean Becker to those who may not know of his work on the Failed War on Drugs. Dean is well known in Houston and can also be found on his blog at www.chron.com as well as many other media outlets. I do not know Mr. Becker personally, however I do follow his effort as well as others on this prohibition which has cost America and other countries so much in the form of lives lost, lives ruined and producing "criminals' who are no more criminal but for the fact the prohibition continues.

I'm glad you've added a link to Dean's great radio shows. He is on of the best investigators into and commentators on the Failed War on Drugs that we have.

As a retired law professor who taught a drug law seminar for about ten years and as host of the Texas Drug Policy Forum's tv show "Drugs, Crime, and Politics" (www.dpft.org ) for almost as long, I appreciate having a great community resource like Dean.

As founder, producer, host of The Prison Show for the last 29 years, I endorse Dean Becker's work with DTN as an important effort to educate with the goal of reform. I have been watching this effort since its beginning and encourage others to listen and spread the word. Change will come when those who will benefit from change are informed and willing to make it happen
