To the letters editor:
Prohibition never works. It didn't work for alcohol, prostitution, opium, heroin, marijuana, cocaine, tobacco, guns, and now fireworks ("Cops Douse Fireworks Cache," Flatbush Life, July 12). Prohibition usually causes more harm than good. In this case, the fireworks, instead of being sold safely in stores, were being sold dangerously out of a school basement. For an outstanding essay on the great harm caused by alcohol prohibition, go to http://www.cato.org/pubs/pas/pa-157.html. And to read about a 2004 presidential candidate who confronts the failed prohibitionist mentality, go to badnarik.org.
