Crackdown Moves Opium Market Underground
March 16, 2002 at 11:09:05 PT
By Molly Moore, Washington Post Foreign Service
Last month, Kandahar's new police chief summoned the prosperous merchants of Narcotics Street to his office and ordered them to close their opium shops.
Within days, the plastic bags of sticky, black raw opium disappeared from the shops' shelves. The trademark brown handprints that covered the walls as advertisements for the narcotic were slathered in fresh white paint.
Now, in many shops the shelves are bare. In others, brightly colored packets of snack foods hang on the walls and tin cans of cooking oil are stacked neatly across the front.
But the klatches of turbaned men sipping tea on the floors of the open-front cubicles aren't interested in snacks or groceries. They are here to haggle over the price of the raw opium that still leaves Kandahar to be processed into heroin for sale in Europe, with some making its way to the United States. Continued...

You Know, People Don't Have To Die From Drugs...

Is that a commandment? An ammendment? A new law they discovered that Nixon erased in the missing 18 1/2 minutes of the tape? Why do Americans have to die for the same things others do properly, and live? Doctors Dutch and Australia. Sending the wrong message? To whom, the dead Americans? The brand new AIDs patients? Those obtaining adulterated street dope when clinics would provide consistant dosages. If Uncle Sam doesn't believe his own IOM tests, who will he believe? Its easier to believe Unkle Scam needs the snitches and stigma for profits and taxes on those profits more than safe using Americans. I think professionals should dispense white powder hardrugs to assure dosages and accuracy. Not necessarily recording correct identifications to cause fear as a trap. Anonymity is preferrable, for the first couple years of PoD, Peace on Drugs. Just REMOVE the POLICE from the BUILDING!
So lets do it and stop the dying then we can get fat dumb and happy moralizing each other.
Peace, Love and Liberty or D.E.A.th!
