PROHIBITION IS IMMORAL

I'd be surprised if your editorial geniuses don't enjoy a cigar and a
scotch now and then. The same kind of hysterical thinking that
illuminated your editorial has provided the rationale for the
billion-dollar bonfire called the "war on drugs" and the greatest
erosion of Americans' personal liberties in generations. Next time you
light up or take a sip, better check out the window for the shock
troops of the nanny state poised to save you from the hell of tobacco
and alcohol.

It can't happen here? Yeah, right.
