WHERE THERE'S NO MARKET

Re: "A Preventable Tragedy -- Drug users share the blame in officer's 
death," Friday Editorials.

This editorial is the best, on-point, most needed editorial I've seen 
in The Dallas Morning News or any other paper in many years. While it 
seems the media want to blame every ill in the world on the U.S. it 
generally overlooks the one big problem for which we are to blame, 
creating the market for illegal drugs.
