ENDING PROHIBITION WOULD EASE DRUG SCOURGE

As a police officer who worked the trenches of the drug war, I learned
that every drug dealer arrested or shot was quickly replaced. Your
newspaper trumpets the news that five meth labs were taken down. So
what? They will be quickly replaced either in North Carolina or
Mexico. Sure you feel good, but the problem comes back like the tide.
To rid America of the scourge of drug dealers, we must be as wise and
courageous as our grandparents; end prohibition, legalize, regulate
and tax these drugs just like we do alcohol and cigarettes.

Do you want to feel good for a day or solve your crime and violence
problem?
