Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

Maj. Neill Franklin of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition talks about Uruguay Legalizing Pot, Is the US next?



"Every time the President has an internet town hall, a YouTube town hall, the major issue is marijuana reform."
"Regulating marijuana doesn't mean you want to use it. It means you want to control it's use."

High Times in Montevideo: Uruguay Entering Brave New World of Pot Legalization


Why do we criminalize drugs with prison sentences for possession and sale to begin with?  It's complicated. But it's mostly because of three United Nations Treaties:

"By the terms of three international conventions (treaties) of 1961, 1971 and 1988, long and growing lists of drugs are criminalized."

"Drug-prohibition drugs, violence, corruption, disease, and death flourish around the globe like a Biblical plague but USA state, national and local leaders say nothing, do nothing and accomplish nothing.  Like the UN and its CND, American leaders acquiesce as bad drug policy causes what it was designed to prevent.  The cowardly inaction is a despicable complacency in time of crisis, a time when the answer is as easy and obvious as it was at the end of alcohol Prohibition."
