DRUG WAR A FAILURE

After 35 years of drug war, a half trillion dollars spent and tens of 
thousands of Americans killed, you correctly describe a terrible 
world filled with the violence and death of drug prohibition. After 
35 years of going backwards (drugs are cheaper and stronger than 
ever), how many decades of drug dealers saturating Durham with their 
destruction are you proposing the people endure and suffer and pay for?
