DRUG POLICY A CRIME

I am really tired of people such as Susie Dugan of PRIDE-Omaha playing the
"kiddy kard" every time they try to justify our horribly failed and
completely ineffective prohibition of illegal drugs.

My three daughters all attend public school. They can buy illegal drugs
today as easily as I could when I was in school 25 years ago. The only
thing that has changed in 25 years is that my children can choose from a
wider assortment of drugs that are stronger than ever before.

Our government's drug policy is a crime against children.
