DEATH SOLVES DRUG PROBLEM

I HAVE listened to and read all the waffle of do-gooders and politicians
about injection rooms, how they will save lives, rehabilitate users, and so on.

But BYO heroin? Buy it from the dealers and we will provide a nice, clean
place for you to inject yourself!

Is this not aiding and abetting a crime? Will injection rooms stop the
illegal drug trade? Absolutely not!

The only way to wipe out drugs is with harsh penalties and by going after
the importers and their dealers.

Customs are catching a few, but the trade gets bigger, month by month.
Harsh penalties mean a minimum of 10 years' prison followed by deportation
of immigrants involved in the trade.

Federal and state politicians do not have the guts to bring in harsh penalties.

They have no plan to wipe out drugs. Who are they protecting?

Singapore imposed the death penalty. A little severe, perhaps, but it sure
fixed the drug trade.
