NO EASY SOLUTION
Re: Robert Sharpe's April 12 letter on legalizing so-called "soft
drugs": I see no
reason to distinguish between any recreational drug, as they all have
a common purpose.
Just because enforcement is expensive doesn't mean it's pointless.
There will always be
drug abuse and organized crime, and as with all social problems,
there is no easy
solution.
