AN OPEN MIND

When I first read the opinion by Jeff Moore (Caving in on drugs) I thought 
that a person like that must be a real moron, but after I thought about it 
I started feeling sorry for him.

The guy can never leave his home and enjoy himself as even going to a 
baseball game -- not even the Brewers, but a local game-- would make him 
party to a crime as someone there might be smoking pot and he would know 
hence deserve a ticket for being there. He can't be a person that goes to 
the mall because someone might smoke something in one of the restrooms and, 
again, he would, of course, know and deserve a ticket.

Does he really think that the Racine Police missed the drugs when they 
ticketed over 400 people? No, they found what, something like three persons 
drugs and they must have been carrying large bags of it if the few that 
were carrying it would have enough to get all 400 plus people drugged up to 
be a menace on the roads. Was I there? No. Am I a 17-year-old who goes to 
raves? No, I'm almost 50 but at least I have an open mind.
