Looking for a great Libertarian Christmas gift for under $6.00?

Check out A Drug War Carol by Susan Wells and Scott Bieser.

Employing a beautifully drawn comic-book format, A Drug War Carol starts off at the Christmas Eve press conference of Scrooge McCzar, who declares medical marijuana “humbug” and orders the arrest of a pot-smoking multiple sclerosis patient, Mary Jane Cratchet.

That night, Scrooge McCzar is visited by the lugubrious chain-dragging ghost of Harry Anslinger, America's first drug czar, who takes him on a journey through history — the true history of our absurdly insane Drug War. It takes true brilliance to cast lying Harry “Mary Jane” Anslinger, who wouldn't have known the truth if it blew his brains out, as our guide to those chest-beating champions of yore who enacted this profoundly racist legislation.

Meticulously researched and foot- noted, A Drug War Carol goes far beyond any comic-book in presenting us with the information we need to combat the shiny cocoon spun around the festering sore of pot prohibition.

Does this sound a bit too intense for Christmas? If yours truly, who once faced a possible ten years in prison for possession of Ecstasy, can rejoice in ADWC's wonderful satire, I think you and your friends will too.
