SCHOOL DRUG SEARCHES WRONG

Tobacco is by far more harmful than any illicit drug found in America
today. The World Health Organization has said so. I wonder what kind
of civics lesson you would have been taught had your parents adopted
the Nazi-like tactic you endorsed in the name of a drug-free utopia?

You ought to consider along with New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson that
students can be drug smart and free rather than drug free and drug
dumb.

"Was the government to prescribe to us our medicine and diet, our
bodies would be in such keeping as our souls are now." --Thomas Jefferson.
