LEGALIZATION NO SOLUTION

Every other day we read or hear someone comment how legalizing illegal
drugs or some other presently illegal activity, like prostitution,
will solve a huge melee of problems for Canadians in our fight against
crime.

We find in most cases, however, that this ever-increasing number are
either not involved in the fight against crime or are themselves part
of the problem.

Legalizing social corruption doesn't make the criminals go away,
rather it brings more in.
