A
couple of weeks ago, following Colorado and Washington’s historic vote
to become the first states to legalize marijuana for recreational use, a piece titled Colorado Legalizes Marijuana: Your Move Eric Holder subsequently went viral. Now the most useless and corrupt organization
on the planet has weighed in – the United Nations.
The head of the UN drug watchdog (the International Narcotics Control Board or INCB), Raymond Yans, has come out in a press release essentially instructing the Attorney General of the United States to enforce Federal Prohibition of pot against the rights of the states to implement a law that is not only Constitutional, but a perfect example of a free people deciding what they want for themselves.
Perhaps that is why the United Nations is so panicky about the legislation in Colorado and Washington. The organization consists of a bunch of global government-craving, control-freak bureaucrats, and as such some welcome this battle as an opportunity to marginalize it further and expose them for the undemocratic creeps they really are. Anyone remember the massive corruption within the UN’s Oil for Food Program? Who would let these creeps decide what every citizen in every corner of the planet can put into their own bodies.
From the UN press release:
The full press release is here. It’s one page, I suggest you read it. Such an intense concentration of hyperbole, panic and propaganda could only be created by the United Nations.

From the UN press release:
VIENNA, 15 November (UN Information Service) – The President of the International Narcotics Control Board (INCB), Raymond Yans, has voiced grave concern about the outcome of recent referenda in the United States of America that would allow the non-medical use of cannabis by adults in the states of Colorado and Washington, and in some cities in the states of Michigan and Vermont. Mr. Yans stated that “these developments are in violation of the international drug control treaties, and pose a great threat to public health and the well-being of society far beyond those states”.
He went on to further state that for the international drug control system to function effectively, to achieve its aim of ensuring availability of drugs for medical purposes while preventing their abuse, the conventions must be universally adhered to and implemented by all States. In this regard, Mr. Yans stressed that national laws, policies and practices in drug abuse prevention and control should be fully aligned with the conventions.
The INCB President requested the Government of the United States to take the necessary measures to ensure full compliance with the international drug control treaties within the entire territory of the United States, in order to protect the health and well-being of its citizens.
