LET ADULTS ABUSE DRUGS
I totally agree with Greg Devereaux's thoughtful letter, "A victim of
the war on drugs" (Sept. 12). It seems to me that adult citizens of a
so-called free country should be free to smoke, swallow, snort or
inject any substance that they want in the privacy of their own homes.
We don't punish those who attempt suicide and survive. So why punish
those who consume the wrong (politically selected) recreational drugs?
