DISAPPEARING ACT
The Drug Enforcement Administration reports in 2009, "Drugs are
readily available to America's youth." As my colleagues Sheriff Jerry
Modena and Police Chief Mike Burns come together to form a drug task
force, taxpayers need to know that all the arrests the task force
makes will be without meaning. All of us in law enforcement know that
an arrested drug dealer is quickly replaced, usually within days. The
real victims are the taxpayers.
Want to make every drug dealer in Georgia disappear? Repeal drug
prohibition -- legalize/regulate and tax the heck out of the drugs.
