DRUG LEGALIZATION

Juarez Mayor Reyes reports that the problems in Mexico are the USA
problems, too. Hogwash! Please recall that this mayor sometimes works
in Juarez, but he lives in El Paso.

The U.S. government has been fighting the drugs and illegals coming
from Mexico to the tune of billions of U.S. dollars annually without
any success. If Mexico was not corrupt, the USA would not have to
fight this curse.

The USA needs to re direct its wasted funds to the many needs of the
USA.

El Paso is not a safe city because the FBI statistics are incomplete
and flawed. They do not include drugs, illegals and weapons
trafficking. These are huge crimes in El Paso.

Yes, your mayor, police chief and sheriff know these facts and they
continue to lie to us about being the second-safest city. This is a
false sense of El Paso being a safe city.

Drugs are in all areas of our society, including schools, prisons,
governments, sports, etc. Most of this curse would go away if the U.S.
government would legalize and, of course, tax and control drugs as it
successfully does booze.

Remember, the bootleggers lost their jobs.
