DRUG DEALERS NEED 'PROHIBITION'
Based on my 18 years of police experience, I think the drug smugglers
are cheering Sen. Charles Schumer's continued support for drug
prohibition ("Schumer: Funds needed to fight drug war," April 22).
Without this modern prohibition, they would not be making billions.
After 40 years and $1.1 trillion tax dollars spent, one would hope
that Senator Schumer would admit what we all know; Prohibition is a
failure, again. Want to rid New York of all drug dealers and
smuggling? Legalize/regulate and tax the drugs.
