Seattle's funniest cartoonist Pete Bagge has another great comic strip in the Anarchist Libertarian rag Reason Magazine, this time looking at the Seattle front of the so-called War on Drugs. The strip covers last December's King County Bar Association's conference that focused on why the government's addiction to drug prohibition is so funny, records some more choice quotes from the WTO's favorite former Seattle Police Chief Norm Stamper (whose position on said Drug War we've admired previously), and generally destroys any confidence Seattlest might have had in our government. News to us: Washington State has no supply limit for medical marijuana patients, but that minor detail apparently wasn't enough to stop a King County judge from sticking a medical marijuana user with a "grow charge" for allegedly growing more than the cops thought he needed. WTF!?

Local hater Pete Bagge drew a little comic strip last year for the anarcho-fascist propoganda outlet Reason Magazine that heaped scorn and ridcule on the innocent men, women and children of the art world. Now, one year later, Bagge's karma comes back to bite him in the ass with an art world style exhibition of that very same comic. Will the hypocrisy blow Bagge's mind? Will it be as bad as that one scene in the Star Wars movie where Luke Skywalker cuts off Darth Vader's head only to see behind the mask... his own face!?
