DEA Seeks Private Guards To Ship Pot

It's hard for me to say just exactly what I think of this idea. From a law-enforcement angle it's arguably one of the stupidest goddamn things I've ever heard of in my life, but then thats what I live for..... OTOH, from an angle of putting the weed on the streets and back with the people who want it and pay for it because it's their right as human beings to smoke whatever the fuck they want to, even if it kills them, then this is probably a good thing.
