Frontline America: War on Drugs

2009 Jun 28 Posted by Charles

The U.S. war on drugs continues, now CNN reports that U.S. law enforcement confirm illegal drug cartels are operating in over 200 American cities.

Does the U.S. drug appetite fuel illegal gun trafficking across the border?

Are we winning the war on drugs? Opinions seem to be varied. Some suggest that it may be time for a new direction or a new strategy?

I applaud our public safety and law enforcement officers for their part in a heroic task as they put their lives on the line in keeping our communities safe. This is no easy task and one fraught with danger and personal risk.

Take care,
Charles
