Dear HCN,
Thanks for that excellent
article and wake-up call about the “meth invasion” by Stephen
Lyons. As a retired detective (NYPD), I know the value of informing
the public about the drug perils in their midst, even in the most,
so-called, unlikely places. An alerted public could well be a major
factor in dealing with and stopping the insidious spread of
narcotics use. Of course, ‘Denial’ is one of the obstacles that
must be overcome … extremely difficult … but your article goes
a long way toward forcing into the public consciousness, the
realization that there are deadly problems in ‘paradise’ that
require dramatic, if unpleasant, solutions.
