Problem Solved

by Carl Ballard — Wednesday, 6/6/12, 8:34 am

I don’t want to be too cynical about Operation Blade Runner (except the name, insert replicant joke here). I mean obviously, it’s the job of the police to go after street dealers. And I’m certainly one of the people who has complained about the open air drug markets.

Still, as long as there’s a demand and it’s illegal, I don’t see the problem going away. New people will take over these places or there will be new places where people buy and sell drugs downtown.

    “Still, as long as there’s a demand and it’s illegal, I don’t see the problem going away.”

    That is essentially the “problem:” government won’t realize that drug use is not going away because many people simly enjoy using drugs. Sane drug policy is what’s needed.

    I’d like to see Bunny Colvin turn Wallingford into Hamsterdam.
