IGNORANCE OF THE PRESS

"RE "DEADLY days for pot trade," (Sun, May 29):

Lord save us all from the unremitting ignorance of the press. The violence 
of the drug trade is there for one reason and one reason only: because the 
drugs are prohibited. You don't read about murder and mayhem amongst gangs 
of tobacconists do you?

(When the feds figure a way to tax it, pot will be legalized)
