Selve konceptet bygger på hvor meget vores "krig imod stoffer" har skadet samfundet og hvor meget vi kunne forebygge ved en legalisering.

COPS SAY LEGALIZE DRUGS!
ASK US WHY
After nearly four decades of fueling the U.S. policy of a war on drugs with over a trillion tax dollars and 37 million arrests for nonviolent drug offenses, our confined population has quadrupled making building prisons the fastest growing industry in the United States. More than 2.2 million of our citizens are currently incarcerated and every year we arrest an additional 1.9 million more guaranteeing those prisons will be bursting at their seams. Every year we choose to continue this war will cost U.S. taxpayers another 69 billion dollars. Despite all the lives we have destroyed and all the money so ill spent, today illicit drugs are cheaper, more potent, and far easier to get than they were 35 years ago at the beginning of the war on drugs. Meanwhile, people continue dying in our streets while drug barons and terrorists continue to grow richer than ever before. We would suggest that this scenario must be the very definition of a failed public policy. This madness must cease!

Personligt synes jeg det er fantastisk at så lille en minoritet tager en kamp op imod noget så alvorligt som kampen imod narko. Det er jo tydeligt at vi har tabt kampen på forhånd, hvis regeringen fortsætter i samme vejbane som vi er på vej nedad.
