In your editorial in which McCaffrey is praised for his gutsy put-down
of the Netherlands for its drug policies, a statement is made that
teen use of marijuana is up 100 percent, and teen use of cocaine,
heroin and LSD is up 150 percent; we're talking here of drug use in
the United States, not in the Netherlands.
If our own drug policies produce such a miserable result, how can we
so smugly put down the policies of another country?
