Letters to the Editor 06-16-2003

- U.S.30 - Liberal Thought - Father's Day - Right To Dissent - AWL U.S.30 Editor, Times-Union: I really enjoy the opinions column, particularly on days when it's filled with a variety of hodgepodge. The subject of traffic deaths out on 30 is just about boring me to tears.People die in traffic accidents every day. An article on Thursday's front page caused me to ask myself a question.The article was titled "Warsaw Man Charged with Dealing Cocaine."The question is for the Kosciusko County Drug Task Force.Just how big of a bite out of crime would you be willing to take to rid Warsaw of this cocaine problem? To publicly humiliate the guy selling it by printing his name on the front page was a real good step one.This is my suggestion for step two.
