    Dear District Attorney Schrunk:

      It's now been 3 weeks since we last spoke in what I thought was 
    to be an on-going dialogue.  Be that as it may, I'll come straight 
    to the point.  The league wants the following: 

                               CEASE FIRE! 
    I.    Immediately stop prosecutions of adult "drug offenders" for:

          A.   Cultivating a personal use amount (say 10 mature 
          plants) of marijuana, unless involved in distribution to 
          minors.

          B.   Possessing a personal use amount of dried marijuana 
          (say up to 1lb.), unless involved in distribution to minors.

          C.   Possessing small quantities (amount ?) of any drug for 
          personal use, unless involved in distribution to minors.

                              HARM REDUCTION
    II.   Divert all funds that would have been used for prosecutions 
    and transfer them to the Public Health for drug treatment on 
    demand.

    III.  Make formal recommendations, at all levels of government, to 
    implement "Harm Reduction" policies.  Join the league in our 
    proposal to create an experimental "Harm Reduction Zone" where 
    drug addicts can anonymously get clean drugs, paraphernalia, HIV 
    prevention materials, and medical care if needed.
    
                 PROTECT THE PUBLIC FROM REAL CRIMINALS!
      I hate to be so harsh but this "WAR" has gone on long enough.  
    Continued support of it represents a gross dereliction of duty on 
    your part.  Admit the TRUTH: Once again as with Alcohol 
    Prohibition, adult drug prohibition has failed and we must now 
    find alternatives.  You have 7 days to reply, in writing, to my 
    stated demands.  I remain open to dialogue, but the time for 
    merely talking has passed.  Too many lives hang in the balance.  

    In solidarity for "Drug Peace!"
