UNITARIAN GROUP URGES DECRIMINALIZATION OF DRUGS

The Unitarian Universalists have called for the decriminalization of all
drugs and an end to treating drug users as criminals.

Meeting in Quebec last week the Unitarian Universalist Association passed a
``Statement of Conscience'' that calls the ``war on drugs'' an abject
failure.

``Our current drug policy has consumed tens of billions of dollars and
wrecked countless lives,'' said the statement.
