Dear Editor,

Re: Gangland Shootings in 91原创 and LMD

The ongoing gang warfare in 91原创 and many other areas in B.C. is at least partially funded by local residents who choose to buy casual amounts of illicit drugs from their neighbourhood 鈥減ushers鈥�. It seems unlikely that the heavy users are the only customer of these gangs, or even the main customers. So, if you are a casual drug user and are concerned about gang related shootings and related violence, look in the mirror.
