If anybody is responsible for the death of Irma Perez (and many like her), it is people just like U.S. Congressman Mark Souder, who put the drug war above the lives of the citizens.
Mark Souder is the scum of the earth
Drug Sentencing Reform Act
Souder's proposed bill mandates that most people on parole, probation, or supervised release be subjected to random drug testing, even when their original offense is non-drug related. If enacted, thousands of non-violent Americans could be sent to prison for years for smoking marijuana in the privacy of their own home and then failing a drug test.
Higher Education Act Retracts Financial Aid From Marijuana UsersUsers
Daily Nebraskan By Hilary Stohs-Krause October 03, 2005*
Rape. Murder. Drunk driving.
None of these crimes will cost college students their Pell Grants, but walking down the street with a joint could. As of July 1, 2000, a provision in the Higher Education Act mandated that students’ eligibility for federal financial aid be suspended if they are convicted under federal or state laws of offenses involving the possession or sale of controlled substances.

Our Education: Up in Smoke!
Few American endeavors of the past two decades have been as rife with cronyism, corruption, and moral hypocrisy as our failed and futile War on Drugs. One can't just view it as a single issue. Directly or not, it affects every area of American life.

Claude Shelby: The son of Richard "Death Penalty for Drug Kingpins" Shelby (R-Ala.) was arrested in Atlanta for possession of 13.8 grams of hash. He was fined a $570 "administrative penalty.
Death Penalty for Two Ounces of Marijuana!
(from September/October 1996 Marijuana Policy Report)
Picture this: An indiscreet American college student returning from a vacation in Mexico is caught with two ounces of marijuana in his pocket. A judge is forced to sentence him to spend the rest of his life in federal prison. If this is his second offense, he will be executed. Could this really happen in America? Yes, if U.S. Rep. Newt Gingrich (R-GA) and his cronies have their way.

James Geddes: sentenced to 150 years, reduced to 90 years
charged with cultivation and possession of five marijuana plants*
Will Foster 93 Years For Cannabis
In 1996 Foster was convicted of five drug counts in Tulsa, all revolving around the plants he was growing in an underground backyard shelter. Foster says he had 38 marijuana plants. He said he was growing them to be harvested in rotation --each harvest to yield about 12 ounces. Prosecuters asserted that he had between 50 and 70 plants and that he meant to distribute. A Tulsa jury sentenced him to a little over a year per plant, 70 years for cultivation. It tacked on 20 years for possession in the presence of minors, his children. Foster asserts they never knew. The sentence "certainly falls within the realm of punishment within Oklahoma law and I think it's a fair verdict," said Tulsa County assistant District Attorney Brian Crain.

A Searing Portrait of Abuse By Colbert I. King
Washington Post November 25, 2005*Washington, D.C.
This is the 12th column to be written about Jonathan Magbie, a 27-year-old man who was paralyzed from the neck down at age 4 after being struck by a drunk driver. Magbie lived at home with his mother, needed private nursing care at least 20 hours a day and was totally dependent upon others because he couldn't use any of his limbs. He got around in a motorized wheelchair that he operated with his mouth, and his breathing was aided by a tracheotomy tube and an implanted diaphragmatic pacemaker.

The Murder of Peter McWilliams
Whatever the "official" cause listed on McWilliams' death certificate, he was, by any definition of the word, murdered by the federal government. If a lone human being forcibly denied a patient their lifesaving medication, which then hastened their death, that cruel person would certainly be indicted for murder. Yet Peter is only the latest victim of an uncaring, unaccountable, unquestioned "drug" policy run by a retired 4-Star Army General, Drug "Czar" Barry McCaffrey- the stone cold heart of Marijuana Prohibition.

War on Drugs Hits New Low By Jordan Smith
Austin Chronicle November 23, 2005*USA
The federal war on medi-pot patients hit a new low last month when Royal Canadian Mounted Police nabbed 38-year-old Steven W. Tuck from his Vancouver, B.C., hospital bed, whisked him to the border, and relinquished him to the custody of U.S. officials, who wanted him on charges related to a 2001 marijuana bust in California. Tuck, an Army vet, uses marijuana to help treat chronic pain associated with injuries he received in a parachuting accident back in the 1980s.
