LEGALIZATION THE ANSWER

I am writing your March 29 crystal meth editorial, headlined The child killer.

If users were free to purchase clean, cheap, quality-tested
marijuana, cocaine, heroin, etc. at the corner store, why would
anyone bother with such an awful drug as meth?

In any event, most of the harm done by meth is very likely caused by
adulterants in the drug, so if the drug was legally produced in
government-inspected premises by knowledgeable and experienced
people, it would be much less harmful.

When alcohol was made legal again after being prohibited, the number
of users dying or suffering harm as a result of ingesting that drug
dropped precipitously.

The best way to reduce the harm and heartbreak of illegal drugs is to
legalize them.
