WAR ON DRUGS ALL ABOUT SAVING A GENERATION

Regarding Cynthia Tucker's column on the War on Drugs ("Drug war's end
could provide anti-terror ammo,"@issue, June 23): The war on illegal drug
use is a war for the hearts and bodies of all Americans. I know Tucker
loves to take shots at Republicans and President Bush, but this is
something we must do or we could lose a generation of people.

We also must get a control on the amount of drugs on the street for sale. I
also think more must be done to track the money generated from the sale of
all those drugs. This is a war we can and must win. I pray we do not give
up now.
