WHAT ABOUT ICE?

Is it me? Or what. Somehow I just don't get it. We spend big bucks to fly
around and spot pakalolo growing, so we can eradicate it, but do nothing
about ICE. Now personally, I've never heard of a crazed pot smoker going on
a rampage and killing innocent people. Anywhere! I have heard of ICE users
killing innocent people, and right here on our beautiful island of Kauai.
So.... how do we get rid of ICE. Well it doesn't grow on trees like pot, and
I really doubt there are enough labs on this island to support the habits of
all the users that live here. Where does it come from? There are only two
sources. The Air and the Sea. Do we have dogs at the airport to sniff
baggage as it passes by on the luggage conveyor or to check people as they
exit the cargo daily? No. We need a special task force devoted to this
purpose. Oh yes, it will cost big bucks to implement a squad for that
purpose. But think for a moment. Instead of spending millions on island
beautification for the tourists, and even more money to bring tourists to
Kauai, we might try to save our children. Very much like Parkinsons disease,
ICE eats holes in the brain until you go maki. These are our children for
goodness sake. Think about it, if you've got any money invested in tourism,
who wants to come to Ice Island. That's where we are headed. Just like
"Garbage Island" from the past, we can whip this problem if we put our minds
and money where it is needed.
