HELPING PEOPLE TO SEE DRUG PROBLEM IS NEEDED

This letter is in regard to the Dec. 10 editorial, "A tragic impact of
methamphetamine."

I think we need to honor our police officers who go out there and put their
lives on the line to help make our communities better places to live.

I think we should be trying a lot harder to prevent the drug problems we
have in our communities and state. We need to try to help people we know
who are on drugs and even people we don't know who are on drugs.

Helping people and even sometimes ourselves is the only way we are going
prevent the drug obstacle from worsening.
