I'm sure that Leary had alot of faults but when you look at what the U.S.
government did to him and his family I think you'd have to put alot of
the blame on the U.S.
Why should people be arguing that Leary should have known better than to
let his daughter carry Marijuana? Leary's house was raided over 50 times
by G. Gordon Liddy. Leary had a religious belief in what he was
doing--(he was a bona-fide member of a Hindu sect which used Marijuana
as a Sacrament)--and he should have had the right to do it. There shouldn't
be an argument about this. Leary was persecuted for his religious beliefs
and he and his family were destroyed by the U.S. government.
If a catholic's house was raided over 50 times for being a catholic, and
then the person's daughter committed suicide, no one would be questioning
whether or not it was the catholic's fault for not being better at hiding!
