This guy is so refreshing, he literally makes a better argument for ending the Drug War than anyone I've ever heard before. And you wouldn't expect an ex-cop to feel that way, which makes it even more powerful. I'd vote for him in a second, no matter what the rest of his politics are like.
I guess bad conscience is driving them... However, they still have a lot of credibility due to experience & age, so I really welcome them & their support on that topic.
Don't forget coffee, any beverage with caffeine, a drug that can make a person sick, (caffeinism, a serious thing) hooked as much as any heroin user. Gotta have that coffee, or headaches, nausea, violence, etc ensue till the "fix" is obtained.
I was thinking the same thing caffeine is nothing compared to other addictions and only a small percentage of people become truly physically addicted to caffeine and the worst withdrawal symptom from caffeine is vomitting and headaches people addicted to heroin get withdrawals so bad that they literally kill themselves
Captain Gerg ...I had a 41 year old friend who consumed over twenty cups of coffee a day. She was always helping people, and she dropped dead helping to carry a sofa up a flight of stairs. The coroner said her heart attack (she was thin) was the direct result of overdosing on caffeine. She did not smoke.

Ron Paul always said the same thing, particularly the "If heroin was legal would you start doing it?" His son Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky and Democrats Kirsten Gillibrand of New York and Cory Booker of New Jersey put forth a bill to remove federal prohibitions on medical marijuana in 23 states where it’s already legal. They said their unusual coalition is a sign of growing acceptance of medical marijuana. Evidently, even the politicians are wising up.
Ryan B. You certainly do hear it from some politicians. Bernie Sanders has a fifty-year track record of honest, ethical consistency. He's an Independent running for President, currently seeking the boost of the Democratic nomination. He opposes prohibition and stands for universal healthcare, both of which can move us toward a healthier national relationship with drugs.
+Neo Smith no its not everyone in Colorado has become insane and all children because of gateway marijuana are now all heroin addicts! Car crashes are up 35000% and no one is showing up to work! NOOOOO THE WORLD IS ENDING DRUGS HAVE KILLED US ALL! looks like the arguments of the stupid anti-drug cock suckers are showing to be what they are... BULLSHIT!
+Neo Smith Here in your neighbor state Kansas you can be thrown in jail for having less than a gram. I've seen it happen to people and I have to face a year of diversion and a $500 fine for having 0.7 grams. Only reason I wasn't thrown in jail is because I was still a high school student at the time.
Jared Cox Yeah that really sucks -- total BS. I have family in Oklahoma and I do not carry weed with me./ That said, since I have CO plates, I get profiled and have been pulled over and harassed with a freaking drug dog that said it found something, but really didn't cop lied as usual. I now fly to Oklahoma.
Car accidents have risen, more hospital vists, the price of weed has dropped which has led to more bankruptcies. The cash generated will fall too, because supply is skyrocketing. Weed is easy to grow, unlike alcohol which requires fermentation and brewery.
KingJustice98 thats not true but even if it were its not the point. Police sgould not go around enforcing what an individual does to themselves without harming anyne else.
Person 1: Hey do you think marijuana should be legal? Person 2: No. Person 1: Why not? Person 2: Marijuana is bad. Person 1: Why is it bad? Person 2: It is illegal. Person 1: *Facepalm*
“Just because we don’t do it you can’t! - So there! And the law says we are right! So we are good and you druggies are bad!” - Says the alcoholics whilst sucking on a cigarette or cigar. That’s what it really boils down to.
@@russellhawkins366 The funny thing is that this is really the statement here in Germany. Its bad because its illegal. And its illegal because its bad.
He pretty much sums it up in one statement: "We are not meant to enforce morality". We are meant to protect people against other people who want to cause the former harm. No objective morals exist by definition and United States and Canada are secular societies whose duty it is to protect their citizens from duress and harassment, - terms which can be defined legally from the secular morality perspective based on common well-being. It is not their job to brand drug use as an immoral activity or be the judge over which type of drug use is considered socially acceptable and which is punishable by a prison term. This is basically trying to impose one's own subjective cultural view of morality on other cultures, - something which should be unacceptable in a secular society, especially one which pretends to be a multicultural one.
2 billion humans on this planet think that human sacrifices make great role models. Gods if u will. Society and civilization are basically hopeless because they are mainly retarded.
So I agree with him on basically everything, but I feel as though this isn't as much about morality. My favorite political theorists talk about "positive freedom", which is eventually promoting the best of oneself for each individual citizen, so I don't think I would agree with him in that manner.
***** LOL well, at least they like to claim it as secular society so I want to make sure that we live up to this claim in best way I can. It's grim, yes the situation is VERY grim, I think few realize just HOW bad it is. We are on a fast track course to our own extinction as species... But never hopeless, even if its fool's hope .... Main problem is our collective myopia - failure to see the writing on the wall which has little but Ars Moriendi written on it. It's actually called Disaster Myopia in Psychology. But now we know how to circumvent our cognitive biases both individual and organizational - something which was hitherto completely unknown...

Nope. He did a lot of things wrong. The murder rate during prohibition for starters. He gave no argumentation for why the murder rate was intrinsically tied to prohibition and the numbers he gave were cherry picked to ignore the explosion of the homicide rate over a decade and a half before prohibition began and he ignored that fact that the rate of increase slowed and began to declining during prohibition. He advocates loosening laws and uses a very faulty analogy for illegal drugs comparing them to cigarettes and the declining smoking rates while ignoring the fact that laws and regulations on smoking have increased rapidly in the past few decades. There's probably more but I only listened to a couple of the time stamped "arguments."
His actual argument, if you were paying attention, was that the war on drugs is a complete failure and waste of resources. It has accomplished the exact opposite of what it intended to do. The war on drugs sought to take drugs off the streets and since its inception, drugs have never been cheaper or more potent/readily available. Heroin is over 400 times cheaper than it was before the war on drugs and it's easier to get than alcohol since dealers aren't checking for ID. People don't abstain from drugs because they can't get them. Nobody is not doing drugs because they don't have access to them. You can easily get drugs in PRISON of all places, and those are maximum security installations. If you can't keep drugs out of something that small and controlled, then there's zero chance of keeping it off the streets.
Kudos Capt. Peter Christ. BTW: Portugal legalized drugs years ago and there the drug related crime rate just disappeared and the comsumption of drugs also decreased notably.
Decriminalised, not the same as legal: "The new law maintained the status of illegality for using or possessing any drug for personal use without authorization. However, the offense was changed from a criminal one, with prison a possible punishment, to an administrative one if the amount possessed was no more than ten days' supply of that substance." From the policy.
False. Portugal decriminilized drugs. While it is obviously a step in the right direction, it is only a very small step. Portugrse plice are wasting their time going after drug dealers, the drugs are unsafe, the business is controlled by criminals. The only benefit is that small time users can get a fine instead of a jail sentence. Which is gteat, dont get me wrong, but dont confuse it with what is actually needed which is legalization. Heroin should be as easy to buy for an adult as coffee.
Reasons why I believe all drugs should be legalized: 1) Freedom of choice, every person should be able to choose what they put into their bodies. This is public policy issue. 2) Danger with even the most dangerous of drugs typically has more to do with purity and dosages which can be better controlled in regulated markets. This is pharmaceutical issue. 3) Non-commercial markets encourage the lack of reporting help to underfund gun violence, burglaries, gang activity, and violent crime. This is an economics and criminality issue. 4) Illegality creates and encourages a public perception about drug users that never before existed. They lose jobs and are publicly ostracized for something humans have done for thousands of years. They are often cherry picked vices looked at unfairly and not given chances. This is an interpersonal psychology issue. 5) The study of these drugs and their affects will change. Our understanding of psychology will change as we gain new technologies to better see their affects. Illegality creates barriers to research. This is science and research issue. 6) They can make you feel good. This is an underrated interpersonal psychology issue. 7) Young people should be educated about how to control and moderate the joy happiness they feel in their lives instead they are taught to just say no, which in some cases can be a downright impossibility. This is similar to the sex education arguments which say to educate and teach birth control over abstinence only. It may be necessary to explain to people when they should focus more on saving money than spending it. Developing better value practices is a part of growing up and substance users face unrelenting charges of skewed values that cigarette smokers, alcohol drinkers, and even other much more expensive risky pastimes can be associated with. This is an education issue. 8) There is historical culture of substance use which is traced back to most ancient civilization that will be extinct unless properly preserved. This is a historical issue. 9) Drug illegality is the primary leverage against minorities and nonwhite communities, also, more general speaking communities of poverty and lower middle class. These sub-groups are unfairly targeted and ostracized for the habits of a larger socioeconomic class. This is a community, racial issue 10) Recovery and Treatment options for substance users and abusers are currently, for the most part reserved for individuals with the resources and support structure that is not availible to many poor and underpriveledged neighborhoods and people. Reasearch has shown that these 'harm reduction" based appraches are cheaper on a state and easier/better for a populace than more putative approaches like jail. Drug user should have opportunity for employment and standard of living same as anyone else. This is a treatment and community concern issue.
@@CaptainHowdy187 I'm refuting every point. 1)Freedom of choice, but you're not free of consequences. People drive on the same road as drug users and can be killed by users who are high. This is why there are DUI laws. What you put in your body can effect other people. 2)Not exactly sure what you're stating here, it sounds like you endorse the current pharmaceutical system. The pharmaceutical system already regulates and taxes drugs, they have deemed crack cocaine, meth, heroin as dangerous and not suitable to sell and make profit off of consumption. The same reason you can't sell knives as toys for children, it's basic common sense. 3) I agree, but this is the argument to be against drugs. You also admit that this IS a criminal issue, which should be brought to criminal courts. 4) Drug users are rarely ostracized, but they can be filtered out of jobs because operating machinery or driving a bus while using drugs or alcohol is dangerous. Thousands of years? Well there was slavery for thousands of years that doesn't mean we should condone it. Crack cocaine, meth and heroin in their current forms have only been used in the past 80 years or so. Native Americans didn't have the technology to create crack cocaine out of the coca leaf. Again though, it's besides the point, this isn't an argument, it's just a statement. 5) science has shown that cocaine is dangerous and hazardous to your health. Pharmacies can't sit around and wait for some great "scientific understanding" to come around to somehow support legalization. When people are dying, government has to respond. Scientists already know the basic makeup of molecules of cocaine, how exactly is new research going to break it down any further?
It's a nice refresher compared to the usual cops/government officials who are strictly against pot but can't find one good reason to support why they are against it except the crime associated with it (which none of them will admit is caused by the fact that it is illegal)
I agree with every one of his points, and have been agreeing with these same points for over a decade. It shouldn't take a genius to figure out that everything he's saying is, sadly, true. But unfortunately, there are too many idiots in the world. There are also many individuals in power who have interests in perpetuating this war.
rob4java Oh they are, it's unfortunate that they are profiting from this... They just recently caught a judge being funded by a privately owned juvenile detention centre to convict as many teenagers as possible. The public is stupid, the smart are crooks, and those of use who like to sit back and blaze are being thrown in jail.
What I always fail to understand is how someone can become so corrupt that they will actively ruin many dozens of lives for the sake of their own financial well being. Where is the decency? How could they justify their actions and do so with good conscience?
Sadly, there are no uprisings. That's the sad part. And, when we question our governments we get killed or arrested. *"No good deed goes unpunished." - Billy Wilder* The CIA officer *John Kiriakou,* which was the whistleblower on the likes of Gina Haspel and Jose Rodriguez, *was the only one arrested* for the illegal treatment (Torture) of detainees in Thailand, prosecuted for being terrorist. Even the illegal action of erasing the evidence of the interrogations on the alleged 92 recordings did not warrant the arrest of the CIA operatives involved. *Gary Webb,* tried to expose a tie between the government and cartels selling illegal drugs. Unfortunately, as reported, Webb was determine to commit *suicide,* as he had shot himself twice in the head. 🤔💭... *Aaron Swartz,* questioned the attack he saw on the first amendment, and the laws that basically said: _"You are to uphold to every law, even if you aren't legally able to see every law, there is no excuses."_ Unfortunately, he committed *suicide* too. This guy did everything Edward Snowden did, and more on the outside of the government. Y'see, we are told to believe that our government will _serve and protect us,_ but as we come to our own beliefs, we find out that trying to do what is best for us is prohibited. *Most sit in fear, unwilling to compromise for change, because of.*
Regardless of whether they "know what its effects are," or not; they still aren't just going to go out and start doing heroin, meth, coke, or anything else, because it's legal.
When I was in high school it was astonishingly easier to find illegal drugs than it was to find the legal ones (Yes alcohol and tobacco are drugs, too). In my opinion it was because of a simple fact- drug dealers don't ask for I.D. By making the drugs illegal it made it easier for high school aged kids to get drugs
I know several people whose parents have called the cops on them but that was for crack and heroin not cannabis and they were at the end of their tethers with their addictions
Good example of the effect of decriminalisation of drugs, is Portugal. You didn't see drug use rise at all, you saw less drug related deaths , teenagers used it less, and more people tried to seek help to get off of drugs.
not a drug addict and agree with every single word this guy says. I dont get why people are still hanging onto this drug war thing. i like to put it like this to..say a mother who doesnt agree your son is on herion..would you rather him go meet G.Baby down in harlem on 128th street at 1 in the mourning, walking over broken glass,dodging cops,prostitutes and murderers OR go to your family doctor and have a proscribed amount until the doctor can slowly ween your son off until hes off the drug.
Drugs aren't bad, people who don't have any education in how to use drugs and use them irresponsibly are bad, and not usually to anyone but themselves. Drugs aren't bad, people are just stupid with no critical thinking skills.
Heroin and meth should be illegal it destroys everything that you are and has no benefit. You resort to the most destructive things to get your fix. You haven't seen the bad that is caused from those drugs.

I'm a visual Bible researcher. The Fall of Babylon is suddenly real. The U.S. Is fighting a perpetual war and always it loses and loses ad nauseam. Next: The Beast.
Two quotes from our founding fathers. 1st George Washington, " Make the most you can of the Indian Hemp seed , and sow it everywhere". 2nd quote by Thomas Jefferson " If the people let the government decide what foods they can eat and what medicines they can take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as are the souls of those who live under tyranny".
Jennifer Jurgens probably she made that phone call a little later....in my country they say "people blame on someone else straw but they never talk about their beam"
Wooooow that was really fucking intense, almost cried when he brought up the bible... he probably has better debating skills than most of the people in the govt. [4]
Dimitri Goryenko Seriously. Her: "Like, OMG! A cop for legalization! That's so weird!" Him: *long list of rational arguments* Her: "Like, OMG! A cop for legalization! That's so weird!" Him: *more rational arguments* Her: "Like, OMG! A cop for legalization! That's so weird!" More power to Mr. Christ. I don't think I could have bitten my tongue with some of the inanity that came out of her mouth. Keep up the good work, sir.
Someone in the America's that held a position of law/authority that actually speaks openly (candidly) and is completely logical and just in what he says... impressive!
LEAP is so awesome. Norway's chief of police, Bård Dyrdal, is one of the leaders and founders of the Scandinavian department. Huge respect to Peter Christ! :)
Without drugs there would'nt be enough crime to rationalize keeping the tax dollars flowing into law enforcement and the prisons. Arresting people and detaining them is quite profitable for a lot of people. Not just the prisons themselves, but all the other services that go with it. This is why the "war" will never end, sadly.

Former captain: I wish you would ask him what other health & education problems should we use law enforcement for? News media: we’re going to take a break 🤦♂️
I have alot of respect for this ex-cop. All too often I have seen police officers simply assume that all drugs are bad and turn everyone who takes them into thieving addicted miscreants when this is not 100% true, and suddenly have a vendetta against someone because they like to indulge every now and then. I understand it is their job to uphold the law but some do it in a fashion is more akin to oppressing the public than protecting them. On a side note: That female news reporter is so bloody annoying when she keeps butting in her stupid unimportant remarks over the officer.
This is the truest thing I've ever heard and agree with him 100%. I never voted for prohibition nor have I ever wanted anyone to go to jail over the non violent crime of possession. As an American, I think we should stand behind the idea of an individual's freedom to choose how they live their life; it isn't the government's job to baby sit us.
The first female host is disagreeing with his premise and stance, while everything she says (seemingly not realizing it herself), clearly makes his case for/of the unassailable logic of complete and total drug legalization and decriminalization.
Tyler Chapman dont hate on americans buddy, im sure theres ignorant people whereever your from, americans overall are pretty smart, we are all living in a matrix and are naive to whats really going on in this life. so watch what u say before you say it Pal
YES YES YES This guy is so on point. The funny thing is if some hippy with dreadlocks makes the same arguement people just dismiss it. But when a cop says this "War On Drugs" is bullshit, it lends a lot of credibility to the legalization movement.
+Mr. Mizu Very true. A very staggering amount of people rely on authority figures to give their opinions to them, and cannot discern truth from falsehood based on the merits of the argument, rather than the credentials of the messenger. I think we all do it a little, but to what degree is determined by intelligence, wisdom, education, and the desire to eliminate logical fallacy from thought.
“Drugs are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Drugs are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behaviour and information processing. They open you up to the possibility that everything you know is wrong.” -Terence Mckenna
This guy makes such well-reasoned points that he can back up. I'd like to hear someone debate him on it in a respectful and unemotional environment. Oh, and Hellooooo Lydia: )

"Protecting you from yourself is a function of family, church, education and a healthcare system, it never is and it never should have been intended to be a law enforcement function" Couldn't have said it better myself, this guy deserves a medal
What a sober fresh of air! Amen to this guy and LEAP forward...I'm so tired of seeing people sacked with huge fines or sitting in jail for months over a couple grams of weed.
I have been saying this for a long time - I am so pleased to see someone with a platform saying it... More people need to hear this and realise that Prohibition DOES NOT WORK! Brilliant video.
His basic premise is that we need to legalize drugs, but if you're skeptical, just give him a few minutes to convince you. Highlights include a very honest answer to a commonly asked drug question at 0:54 , the easiest question to answer about the War on Drugs at 4:48 , the complete destruction of the biggest argument anti-drug advocates use at 7:23 , using the Bible to prove the ineffectiveness of prohibition at 13:55 , and a rapid-fire debunking of several myths all in one breath at 14:20 . If you have to leave right now, just skip to 5:58 for the thesis statement in a single sentence.
Horak Yup. Good thing more people are allowed to see it now, right? You literally just made a pointless comment only aimed to mock. So what does that contribute?
Yeah, this was really thought out and insightful. If I may add, most if not all drug charges carry felonies like he said. So many people have no idea of the limitations that puts on one's life. They can't vote, get a good job or education, and it marks them as a horrible person. Felony charges should be reserved for violent crimes.
I was a prisoner of the drug war. I didn't do anything... Was a really nice guy! Then I got a cerebral haemorrhage, the deadliest of strokes, 50% mortality rate and here I am in solitary confinement till my death. All for a little piece of cannabis. The USA is truly an empire.
Is this a local news show? This is how an interview should go. Intelligent, open-minded, willing to learn, no rhetoric, no vested interests, FAIR AND BALANCED. .
That isn't an interview. That's some broadcasting time for a guy who has all the logic and all the arguments and who wants to share those with the public.
***** I could be wrong, but I think KeenDogg51 was responding to Dan Large in regards to the fact that I initially caught the facetiousness of the new casters comment, and in turn was pointing it out and being trollish/sarcastic in my original comment; which all might have been lost. I could be wrong though... After all, I'm just a musician (coy self-promoting plug)...
Legalize all drugs and do a better of keeping them out of the country, once they're in the country it is too late and people are goin to do it. Also we have clearly defined addiction is a disease, yet we throw people in jail, that would be like getting cancer and being thrown in jail.
WoW I love what this guy has to say. best anti drug prohibition click I've seen!! to bad politicians don't think this rationally? we the people take care of us and the law focusses on the people that want to harm the people! that's the way it should be!
I think your wrong when you say the lumber companies are afraid of hemp. Because hemp isn't used for wood hemp is a fiber used for the making of rope. as a matter of fact the Navy has been using hemp rope for ever. and did you know that Henry Ford actually built and entire car using only marijuana hemp. Go to Scientific Research and real facts about the Cannabinoids in Cannabis, you should find the hemp car towards the end. But you will most likely want to watch the entire film, It's a very good documentary film on the history of Marijuana, Medical Marijuana, and hemp that at one time in U.S. history was one of the largest crops grown in the States.
thank*reason Right now they are building homes that can last 300 years using hemp Crete that is lighter and stronger than steel There are thousands of things you can do with hemp, There is a brand new car that just hit the market made completely with Marijuana hemp. Henry Ford also built a car entirely out of hemp and fueled the cars engine with hemp oil, the first diesel ever built was also fueled with hemp oil. The constitution was written on paper made from hemp. And it's completely safe, with no ill affects to our environment, I could go no and no there are so many very good use's for this magnificent plant, Plus all of it's medical use's.
this guy emphasises violence which is, don't get me wrong, a big issue. The biggest issue however, is money. There are two major points concerning money; the cost of waging the war on drugs, and the cost of benefiting from legalisation. you just have to look at the millions of dollars in tax that Colorado and Washington are making annually. The second biggest issue, and for many also the first, is the amount of people in prison for non-violent drug offences. This is also a cost issue, and privately owned prisons love to have as many prisoners as possible as they receive de niro for each. The last point i wanna make, not the last point because there are many more, is that marijuana is incredibly less harmful in many ways, then every other drug. You can't OD, you don't become violent, it eases stress, pain, eating and insomnia disorders, and treats serious medical conditions like epilepsy, as well as helping cancer patients live fuller, happier, more painless lives. Once the far right realises marijuana's net worth, they'll come around.

I'm in L.E... I agree with this guy and I think a lot of newer cops are following suit. If someone wants to put some illicit substance in their body is it really a police officer's job to stop them. I do not condone the use of heroin or meth but like this guy said it is out there and no one can really do anything about it.
