Judge: Drug war abysmal failure

U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill told a criminal justice reform conference at Concordia University School of Law in Boise today, “From my observations of 28 years having watched the ‘War on Drugs,’ we have seen nothing but, I think, an abysmal failure.” He said, “We certainly have not reduced drug consumption. Whatever has happened, it has not been worth the price that we have paid”/ Betsy Russell , Eye on Boise. More here.

Question: Do you agree/disagree with Judge Winmill that this country’s “War on Drugs” has been an abysmal failure?
