REGULATION AND TAXATION WOULD SAVE MONEY, LIVES

Editor:

Re: ('On Mounties and crime: Q&A with RCMP Insp. Yves Lacasse'):

With great respect to Kamloops RCMP Insp. Yves Lacasse, I disagree 
with his opinion on marijuana.

My father and brother were RCMP officers, so I have great respect for 
all law enforcement and know they have a tough job.

Organized crime is connected to marijuana because marijuana is illegal.

Education, regulation and taxation would hurt organized crime and 
make everyone safer.

For further information, you can read the information on the Law 
Enforcement Against Prohibition website at leap.cc .
