DRUG WARFARE

Drug Policy Network Executive Director Ethan Nadelmann is correct to
advocate for the end of our "War on Drugs," which has resulted in
nothing but a mountain of deaths, a litany of diseases and the
fortification of organized crime ("It's time to end drug prohibition,"
Dec. 14).

I share his hope that President-elect Obama will allow debate on this
issue to flourish and result in a re-examination of the legitimacy of
these laws that dictate what one can do with his or her own body -- as
thoroughly an anti-American notion as abdridging freedom of speech.
