Legalize Drugs!

RECEIVED Mon., April 3, 2006

Dear Editor,
    I wonder when the U.S. is going to pull its head out of its collective ass and end the reign of terror narco-terrorists are using to murder cops, judges, and politicians? All I keep hearing from these assholes is "We need more cops on the border!" Well, bullshit. We need to legalize drugs, take the money out of the illegal drug trade, and put the drug gangs out of business. If alcohol is legal, why is pot illegal? I got a challenge for the city of Austin: Decriminalize drugs. If you can sign some bullshit petition against the war in Iraq, why not grow the balls to do something about the war against U.S. citizens? Wonder if the Chronicle might stand up and do something other than carp and complain? Maybe sponsor a public forum on the subject? Who knows? Baby steps.
