SURRENDERING TO THE GANGS
Legalizing marijuana means surrendering to the gangs, drug lords and
all the current violence.
Why should everyone live in fear? Legalizing marijuana is a cop-out
way of dealing with real issues.
We are trying to cut down on tobacco usage, so why would we make
marijuana that much more accessible to drug users?
Sgt. Scott Rintoul is right about children being our future. It is a
vicious circle: If we stop teaching kids what is right and wrong,
problems will just escalate.
Much of this can be blamed on irresponsible parents, because
screwed-up kids are not born that way.
Parents should do their job or not have children.
We need a licence to drive.
Perhaps we should require a licence for parenthood.
