RIP William F buckley Jr.

[Keith Lake]

I'd expect the conservative streak of Buckley to be slightly distasteful to some at this sight, but his Libertarian leanings were really right up our alley.

Buckley was a huge opponent of the drug war - even before it grew into the huge failed beaurocracy it is today.

My favorite WFB quote to this end...

"Even if one takes every reefer madness allegation of the prohibitionists at face value, marijuana prohibition has done far more harm to far more people than marijuana ever could."


RIP WFB

I heard a rumor that smoked weed, regularly, in the 70's. He just took his yacht outside the three mile limit and lit up legally.

I will miss him. And his use of obscure monosyllabic words.
