CURB CRIME

MINDELLE JACOBS'S Sept. 11 column, "Let's legalize pot and tax it."
Sure, as if we don't have enough impaired drivers on the road. And,
while we're at it, let's legalize bank robbery, murder and rape and
"tax it." How about using some of the taxes we're already paying to
curb crime, not decriminalize crime?

(It's a contentious topic.)
