WAR ON DRUGS IS MONEY MISSPENT

Re: Neighbourhood pot labs busted, Oakville Beaver Nov. 16, 2001.

Unless and until newspapers such as yours begin to include in their drug
bust stories a recognition of the fact that many feel the war on drugs is
(1) a failure, and/or (2) the main source of funds for terrorists, and/or
(3) unconstitutional, and/or (4) a state sanctioned pogrom designed to ruin
the lives of the innocent few who happen to enjoy certain drugs, this
appalling program will continue much longer than it should.

There is no more reason to punish drug users and dealers today than there
was in the past to hang witches, lynch blacks or gas Jews.
