DRUG RESPONSE TOO ARBITRARY

Re: "Drug crackdown long overdue," letter, Aug. 10.

If the letter-writer wants to live in an Orwellian police state where 
corrupt governments and militaristic police make and enforce 
arbitrary rules based on superstition and ideology, then he should go 
live in one.

But then, if Stephen Harper ever gets a majority, the writer will get 
his wish: More suppression of civil rights and liberties, and huge 
prison population explosions, like in the U.S.
