END THE PROHIBITON

Cpl. Larry Wiltshire, might be the one who's naive (Drugs a Problem in
Vulcan County, Nov. 14, 2007); it's not a drug problem, it's a drug
prohibition problem. The original prohibition increased gangs, crime,
homicide etc. and it only subsided when alcohol prohibition ended.
Once alcohol prohibition ended, murder rates decreased for 10 years,
and there is reason to believe that ending the sequel will produce the
same results.

Further, cannabis (or kaneh bosm or marijuana) isn't a drug but rather
a relatively safe God-given plant that should be re-legalized
immediately.
