- Esai: (On the American Drug War) I think it's privatizing big bother basically and also it's a way to steal from the population legally infront of everbody's eyes, And do you notice that the war on drugs, the war on cancer, the war on aids, the war on crime, the war on povertry, the war on terror now to me, are all phoney public relations wars meant to justify, but it's taking billions of dollars from the public, they don't address the problem, they don't want to.
