This is Raymond Yans, the head of the United Nations' International Narcotics Control Board, the UN "watchdog" agency urging U.S. federal officials to challenge ballot measures in Colorado and Washington that decriminalized possession of small amounts of marijuana for adults 21 and over.
Raymond Yans says the approvals send "a wrong message to the rest of the nation and it sends a wrong message abroad."
Yans told
The Associated Press on Tuesday he hopes Attorney General Eric Holder "will take all the necessary measures" to ensure that marijuana possession and use remains illegal throughout the U.S.
How does
some guy from Belgium, representing a foreign government, feel he has the right to influence the repeal of a decision that was voted in, democratically, by the sovereign citizens of the states of Colorado and Washington? My guess would be that he is a psychopath.
