IT WAS WRONG TO PRINT HOW TO GET DRUGS
The village of Hancock is dealing with the tragic loss of one of its
teen-agers to an apparent overdose. In this day and age of "copycat"
mentality on some kids' parts, I think it most inappropriate to print, on
the front page no less, detailed directions for obtaining drugs and how to
administer them, (April 18, Daily Star). If a curious kid didn't know how
to get this information from the Internet, he or she does now! In my
thinking, The Daily Star used poor judgment in this matter.
