KILLING OF PHOENIX FAMILY IS EXHIBIT A ON DANGERS OF DRUGS

For those of you that think using and selling drugs is not a violent 
crime, I suggest you consider the event that occurred to the Buckner 
family on Tuesday in Glendale.

Alex Buckner killed his mother, father and two sisters and then set 
the house on fire. Responding police had to shoot and kill Alex. What 
could be more violent?

Furthermore, there is a TV program called "The First 48" which 
televises real-life homicide events around the country. A large 
portion if not the majority of homicides involves drugs. So ask 
yourself, would the world be a better place if there was no 
marijuana, crack cocaine or heroin? Q.E.D.
