AS LONG AS DRUGS ARE SOLD, PROBLEMS ARISE

It seems that some people's ignorance is exceeded only by their
stupidity.

Frank Whittle's current letter (The Toccoa Record Dec. 3) not only
calls everyone who is against the epidemic of drugs and the war on
drugs a bunch of liars (even accusing the police and D.A. of making up
"facts"), but continues to decry the black community as the reason for
the "so-called drug problem."

He then concludes the drug task force and or police are using the
citizens of Stephens County as target practice dummies!

Allow me to enlighten a seeming clouded mind.

While it is true that many drug dealers/users are black, there are
just as many or more from every race. They just haven't been caught.
Mexican, Puerto Rican, white, American Indian, you name it. And drugs
are not confined to Currahee Street.

Many arrests have been made in Martin, (by the lake), Wal-Mart's
parking lot, Stephen Drive, Colonial Drive, Hwy 365, I-85 and many gas
stations all over the county.

The only reason Whittle spouts on about Currahee is that is where the
shooting of the Rev. Ayers occurred.

Prior to the shooting, where was Whittle with his inane commentary on
the fallacy of drugs?

Mr. Whittle seems more concerned about the fact that a preacher was
shot than the reasons behind it.

Also, one must realize the on set of other crimes due to drugs. Chief
among them prostitution, theft/robbery; assault and even murder and
rape.

Only a moron would deny any problem with drugs, unless you are using
them yourself.

The old adage "Me think he doth protest to much" comes to
mind.

Regardless, even school children realize the problem with drugs.
Period. No debate, no commentary.

Enough beating the dead horse. Aside from the police/Drug Task Force
doing a great job of getting drugs off the streets, they need help
from the other aspects of the legal system.

No more nollo pleas! Plain and simple. No easy going on
dopers.

Get rid of the namby pamby judges who do not have the guts to give
dope dealers hard time in prison. Had this been the case in the Kayla
Barrett issue, Rev. Ayers may still be alive today as he would not
have been in that position to start with!

Any judge who puts fines and probation before justice has got to
go.

A new law has to be passed where doing drugs are illegal (as it
stands, its not illegal to do drugs just possess them) called internal
possession of controlled substances.

This means when someone is on drugs, they can be arrested and charged
under possession laws!

In short, as long as the drugs are being used and sold, problems will
always arise, only by ridding the drugs will things change!
