FIGHTING WITH FACT-CHECKS

Re: "A Border War of Words - Flawed study on narco-violence a 
disservice," Sunday Editorials.

Thank you for pointing out the gross errors and exaggerations in the 
Texas Department of Agriculture's report on violence along the 
Texas/Mexico border. 

Baseless, alarmist propaganda got us into the drug war. Calm, 
unbiased, accurate information is essential if we are to get out.
