WHY DO WE HAVE RCMP?

To The Editor:

Sorry but am I missing something here? Were there not drugs in the car
that was stopped for a minor light being burned out? Yes, the officer
acted on a hunch, but that's his job people! He is the one, after all,
who has the training and the experience.

Because of that hunch, those drugs that might have found their way
into schools to kids and adults etc. will not be used by our society.

It's the judicial system that's in need of a good shaking up! Drug
traffickers in other countries certainly have a harder time than they
do here in Canada.

We have the RCMP to act on their better judgment to protect us
Canadians. I for one, am glad the officer acted on his hunch! Good
Job!
