FAILED WAR ON DRUGS
I'm writing about Betty Kruk's letter: "Vote No on Pot Question"
(10-16-02). Those with a vested financial interest in perpetuating our
failed war on drugs will do anything and everything to make sure marijuana
is never re-legalized.
Last year there were greater than 734,000 arrests for marijuana violations.
There were more arrests for marijuana violations than for murder, rape,
armed robbery, assault and burglary - combined.
It seems to me our police should protect us from people that want to harm
us - not ourselves.
Best regards,
