DRUG BUSTS DESTRUCTIVE

Re: "Saanich police put a stop to drug-trafficking operation," Jun. 15

Why not ask the police if they believe these drug busts are making a 
difference? Ask them if the failure of alcohol prohibition provides 
any insight into the efficacy of drug prohibition.

Many people oppose our drug laws because they are an abuse of our 
God-given right as free adults to ingest whatever substance we want, 
they are totally ineffective and they cause more harm to users and 
non-users alike than leaving the users alone.
