Everyone, by now, has heard of Daniel Chong, the 23 year old student busted by the DEA for smoking a joint and then left in a holding cell, in the dark, until he was near death.  We don’t consider this news because we fully realize how dysfunctional and thoroughly broken our government bureaucracies are, and how morally bankrupt and intellectually stunted our entire approach to drug use is.  The “Gee Whiz” media made hay with it.  The best rendition is this one.
