COPS NOT SOLD ON SCALING BACK DRUG-FREE ZONES
There is talk of shrinking drug-free school zones because of unfair
social consequences.
But some police officers looking at the issue purely from a
law-enforcement perspective say the only thing lawmakers should
shrink is the possibility of a drug dealer facing less time in prison.
The current law increases penalties for anyone found selling drugs
within 1,000 feet of a school or 500 feet of a park, public building
or public housing.
