Bob Carr

ILLICIT drug users in NSW won't be sorry to see the back of Bob Carr. This is the man that escalated the domestic war on drugs with the introduction of the "drug house" legislation, sniffer-dogs on the streets of Sydney and the militarisation of the NSW police.

Hopefully the next premier will be someone who realises that their drug war does more harm than it is supposed to prevent; or maybe that's just collateral damage.
