There are a lot of strict authoritarians out there. It's not just cops. Cafferty posed a question yesterday on CNN about how to relieve the prison overpopulation problem. My answer, apparently the most popular one, was to legalize marijuana and decriminalize all drug use. Next answer, reflecting a lot of comments I read, was basically to fry a lot of people and send the rest to a gulag. With divisions like that in opinion, it's a wonder this country is still holding together.
