Railroading Revenge

From Radley Balko at CATO:

Cory Maye should unite both liberal death penalty foes and conservative gun rights advocates. Liberals bothered by Tookie Williams' execution should be outraged by the Maye situation. Conservatives troubled by Waco should work to stop more Prentisses [Mississippi] from happening.

I agree whole-heartedly. The drug war is an abysmal failure and the state has been using it as pretext to expand its authority (e.g. bullying) and to strip us of our liberties for far too long.
