PROHIBITIONIST PROPAGANDA?
Editor, The Star:
Re: "Rush, high and crash, the Meth
nightmare," Apr. 22, don't you have anything
better to do than to print this simple-minded
prohibitionist propaganda? Just because some people
can't handle crystal meth, doesn't mean the rest of us
can't either. I suppose you think we should ban
alcohol because users become alcoholics.
The best way to reduce the harm and heartbreak of
illegal drugs is to legalize all drugs and allow users
to purchase clean, cheap, quality-tested drugs at the
corner store. But the experts are having too much
fun scaring us all to champion an initiative that will
save lives.
