If the navy stopped chasing around the world for various drug shipments, would we notice any difference here at home? Were things a lot worse with respect to drug-induced crime before this program started back in 2006? Were the gangs more numerous then than they are today? Are we winning the war on drugs now? I don't think so. A truly ludicrous column. Alan Randell Victoria - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
