PROHIBITION'S LESSON

James Ransom (Opinion, Nov. 8) seems unaware of what happened when 
alcohol prohibition was repealed.

Widespread violence and massive corruption among politicians and 
police officers vanished virtually overnight.

Ransom also seems unaware of the existence of the organization Law 
Enforcement Against Prohibition: www.leap.cc.

LEAP has many members currently or previously employed in the 
law-enforcement industry, including Larry Campbell, the mayor of Vancouver.
