READER DISAGREES WITH DRUG BUST COVERAGE

Regarding your Jan. 14 story, Mounties on a roll with major drug seizures,
punishing the minority who sell or use some harmful recreational drugs while
leaving alone the majority who sell or use other harmful recreational drugs
can have no other logical purpose than to entertain the majority by
persecuting that innocent minority. We would do well... to remember that
drug prohibition's initial purpose was to persecute certain non-white
minorities . Please, I'm begging you, please leave room in any future drug
bust stories for the comments of those like me who oppose our shameful drug
prohibition law.
