GRAMS AND THE DRUG LAWS

Regarding Morgan Grams: I do wish Sen. Rod Grams had not voted in favor
of drug laws that subject all other Americans, especially young blacks
and Latinos, to vicious and destructive punishments. I believe America's
drug laws would look very different if lawmakers imagined the
punishments being applied to their own sons and daughters, and not just
to the powerless.
