SOCIETY'S DRUG PROHIBITION LAWS ARE SHAMEFUL

The Editor,

Re: "Bringing down the house," the Now, Nov. 15.

Think about it. Punishing the minority who sell or use some harmful
recreational drugs while leaving alone the majority who sell or use
other harmful recreational drugs can have no other logical purpose
than to entertain that majority by persecuting an innocent minority.

Please leave room in any future drug stories for the comments of those
like me who oppose our shameful drug prohibition law.
