Drug Warrior Owen Doubly Wrong
By Tom Hawkins
I see Lt. Governor Brad Owen is at it again. It wasn't enough for him
to be printed state wide ranting against Dr. Rob Killian's medical
marijuana initiative. Now, he is crying about the proposed cuts in using
the National Guard against American citizens.
Unlike our prohibitionist lieutenant governor, I am glad that cuts are
being made in the use of our National Guard in the Drug War. National
Guard resources are meant for protecting the people, not fighting them.
History shows that when the Guard is turned against Americans a horrible
tragedy often takes place.
When will Owen realize that attacking people in the name of the War On
Drugs is wrong? Enough! The people are tired of war lust.
Sincerely,
Tom G. Hawkins
