Pubdate: Tue, 7 Dec 1999 Source: Toronto Star (CN ON) Section: Letters, Page: A25 Copyright: 1999, The Toronto Star Contact: http://www.thestar.com/ Author: Curtiss H. Clarke, Toronto NO COVERAGE FOR PUNKS Re Reid gave up fairy tale for heroin (Dec. 1). Why does The Star continue to provide coverage for junkie criminals? Stephen Reid is a sorry, sad fool. So what if he is Canadian and an author? This guy made his own choices. Bad ones. When major newspapers are full of stories that glamorize drug-addicted bank robbers and murderers, it's not surprising that young people today are confused about who their mentors may be. These people are just punks and cowards. The less said and printed about these drones of society, the better. Curtiss H. Clarke - --- MAP posted-by: Doc-Hawk
