WAR ON DRUGS

You have recently published letters declaring the mistake a young man made
for possessing 1.2 ounces of pot. It cost him his life, yet the letter
writers say it is justified because he broke the law.

How ignorant and self-righteous is that?

The Sunrise police fouled up. No one should be killed for smoking or selling
pot. If so, you are declaring war on some 5 million Americans.

Oh! And in case you missed it 75 years ago, prohibition doesn't work, so
lock and load.
