Drug Warrior Owen Doubly Wrong
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
