EXPOSING RACIST DRUG LAWS ENCOURAGING, OVERDUE
Dear Editor: It's encouraging that The Capital Times is exposing the
current racist effect of drug laws on minorities (97 Black Drug
Offenders Imprisoned for Each White One), but with further
examination it's evident most drug laws were enacted as a racist
means to incarcerate minorities to begin with. For bigots who
instituted America's drug laws, they are working as planned.
