LEGALIZATION BETTER IDEA THAN DRUG COURT
Regarding "Drug courts are a good investment for state" (July 23): Our
grandparents must have been a lot smarter than we are. They didn't waste
time setting up alcohol courts when they realized that prohibiting alcohol
was causing more harm than good. They simply ended alcohol prohibition.
We should do likewise because the best way of reducing the harm and
heartbreak inflicted by illegal drugs on users and nonusers alike is to end
drug prohibition.
