The Crew
I just watched this movie The Crew. It is very
funny and overall worth watching. But as usual, there
was something in it that pissed me off. At the end of
the film, the main character justifies sending this
big-time drug dealer to jail with, "I never liked drugs
anyway."
The main character is a retired wiseguy. He's made his living killing people. And the drug dealer is a murderer too. But it is okay to harm him because he sells drugs--not because he is a murderer. I'm sorry to rant on and on about this but we live in a sick society. Again and again we are told that drug dealing is worse than killing; drug use is worse than death.
People look back on the Nazis and wonder how so many people
could have accepted the idea that Jews were sub-human. I'm
sure that future generations will look back at this time and
wonder about our beliefs about drugs. But this is cold comfort
to me, who gave a year of my life to these ridiculous notions
about drugs. It is cold comfort to those who gave much more time
to these notions. It is very cold comfort indeed to those who
gave their lives. Ideas have power. Be careful what you believe.
Drug Dealing = Murder
Drug Use = Suicide
