Webpage continually revised. It seems some search engines are pulling up this page when a search is made for "drug war charts." So here is a good webpage that at the present time is continually revised:*WORLD DRUG WAR CHARTS. JUST THE CHARTS. Tables and rates. For incarceration, race, jail, prison, cannabis, drugs, mandatory minimums, drug related crime, poverty, murder, and more. Revised. Very few notes. http://www.angelfire.com/rnb/y/charts2.htm http://www.angelfire.com/rnb/y/charts2.htm [ Post Comment ] Comment #1 posted by FoM on April 09, 1999 at 22:09:57 PT Human Rights and the Drug War!
