The Quest for Justice
Ken Crispin, author of THE QUEST FOR JUSTICE 2010 speaks on the current 'war on drugs'
..Much could be achieved if the leaders of the major political parties in any western society were to sit down around a table, agree to forgo political point scoring in relation to this one issue, and conscientiously consider what policies would save most lives. The first step would be a simple agreement that drug usage should be treated primarily as a public-health and social problem. That is, of course, what it is. The need for effective law-enforcement measures to prevent drug importation and trafficking should not be permitted to detract from the need to focus on the health and safety of youth(Crispin 2010 p193)
