SEND THE BOYS HOME

"We're at war, and we're experiencing the consequences of that war in terms
of violent encounters, and I only see that increasing," one DEA agent was
quoted in a deeply disturbing Los Angeles Times article "War on Drugs Taking
Toll on Border Agents."

The men and women of law enforcement offer their lives to protect our own.
They are modern-day heroes who deserve our deepest respect, admiration, and,
above all, care. Need we continue risking the lives of these courageous,
self-sacrificing, precious human beings fighting a War on Drugs that, most
experts agree, cannot be won?
