Will You Arrest Me?

Mitt Romney got asked by a medical marijuana patient, "Will you arrest me?" Mitt gave a brilliant answer. He turned his back on the guy. So much for compassionate conservatism.

My answer to the man's question:

"I will not arrest you. We should have learned our lesson from alcohol prohibition. I do not believe in price supports for criminals and terrorists. Just as alcohol prohibition didn't solve the alcohol problem, drug prohibition is not solving the drug problem and has in fact, like alcohol prohibition, compounded it by adding a crime problem."
