Drug War Casualties

Some good -- albeit heartwrenching -- press for Families Against Mandatory Minimums (FAMM) in this week's LA Weekly. FAMM agitates for changes in unduly onerous federal drug sentences. The Weekly tells some blood-boiling stories -- it's always worthwhile being reminded of the real destruction caused by the fed's criminal "war." (Full disclosure: Before she founded FAMM, its president, Julie Stewart, was my first boss in the libertarian policy world back when I first began interning at a D.C. think tank.)
