TRIGGER HAPPY
To The Editor;
The U.S. Government with it's multibillion-dollar anti-drug money has
created a trigger happy atmosphere. Whether it is a foreign Government
like Peru. American missionary Veronica Bowers and her infant daughter,
Charity, shot down by Peruvian military.
Or the drug task force on the streets of America.
Man dead in NYC shot 19 times holding up wallet, Man in Tennessee dead,
wrong address in raid. An 11-year-old boy shot in the back at close
range with a shotgun, wielded by paramilitary SWAT team member in a
fruitless drug bust in California.
Lets pray this failed drug war will NOT go on for another 30 years!
