Operation Sudden Fall: DEA drug bust at San Diego State U.

A new short film about the recent DEA drug bust at San Diego State University that resulted in almost 100 arrests, including students majoring in criminal justice and Homeland Security. The ongoing sting operation that lead to the arrests was a direct response to the death of SDSU student Shirley 'Jenny' Poliakoff from an overdose last year. (found on: milkandcookies) RT: 10:00

Unless you are trying to kill yourself the main reason why people overdose is because of substances being unregulated because of the drug war. So because of one overdose they do a drug war sting resulting in 100 more people's lives being messed up. Oh the irony.

If you have ever seen Requiem for a Dream you may have realized at some point that were there no war on drugs, all the shit that happened to the main characters has almost zero chance of happening. The main problem with drugs is that they are hidden, not the drugs themselves. More openness would lead people to make better more informed choices as to which substances they put in their bodies and how much they are actually using. It would be easier to get help and to notice people who might need help. It would free up resources to deal with problems rather than using resources to create problems. Etc.
