LEGALIZING ALL DRUGS WOULD END GANG VIOLENCE, SAVE LIVES

Re: Twenty minutes of terror, Sept. 2

In light of the increasing number of drug overdoses, it's time we
legalize all drugs. Users will get an unadulterated product that will
not contain fentanyl, drain cleaner, etc. that criminals are lacing
their illicit products with. Make it affordable. This will eliminate
violent gang activity and save lives. Prohibition didn't make alcohol
go away. It led to criminal fortunes, the proliferation of violence,
pain, suffering, and destroyed lives. A medical approach to the drug
problem is a win-win situation.
