In many ways I continue to be myself, a person who like dostoyevsky's the idiot seeks the good in all people, but it's hurt by it on occasion and maybe is destroyed by it in the end. I also think about my role as an interviewer sitting across a man like roger in these interviews in life. But when reading about Roger's story and talking to him, I couldn't escape the thought that while society wants to label him a criminal and a bad human being, there are much worse men out there who we give a pass to even give power to even men who hold political office or run companies. There's a lot more to be said about the damage done by the war on drugs. Then there's a human stories of the 500,000 human beings sitting in prison for drug-related offenses and the 1.1 million on probation and parole, their life is damaged or ruined beyond repair due to the prohibition of drugs. That could send more than 650,000 students to public universities every year. The war on drugs has cost us $1 trillion, marijuana legalization alone would save and make $13.7 billion. His crime was the transport of drugs Since 1971. Given this, I think about what makes for a good man and what makes for a bad man and who decides sitting across from Roger, I saw a complicated man, The one who has kindness in his heart, a love for money and adventure and a disdain for violence. We give power and money to corrupt politicians and dictators that starve and murder their own people. We sometimes idolize murderers and destroy good honest men. I thought about this and about Pablo escobar who was at once, both a brutal murderer and a Robin Hood figure who helped the poor and was loved by thousands if not millions. Roger is a criminal, a bad man who was added to the suffering in the world but he never directly engaged or participated in the violence unlike his bosses, Pablo escobar and jorge Ochoa.
