PIGNATELLI IS WRONG ON SCHOOL-ZONE STANCE

To the Editor of THE EAGLE:- Rep. William "Smitty" Pignatelli has always
been a good listener and we know he's not in favor of drugs. So why is he
listening to those attempting to weaken our drug policies and laws? We
can't understand for a minute how anyone would listen to those who
advocate for making illegal drugs easier to sell and get in South County.

If Mr. Pignatelli is truly thinking as a parent, he will not be captured or
bought by the illegal drug proponents. He will realize most of his
constituents fear drugs and the harm they bring to our children, while
only a selfish few care about lessening punishment of those caught dealing
in a school zone.
