Eugene Register-Guard
Willamette Valley heroin plentiful
Eugene holds the No. 1 spot on a list of cities nationwide for the cheapest heroin on the street, according to the federal Drug Enforcement Administration. -- Mexican manufacturers typically smuggle it into the country in cars and trucks, and deliver it along the Interstate 5 corridor along the West Coast. -- "Eugene is the first major city in Oregon that it hits," Eichhorn said. "There is quite a bit of it here," though he noted that recent prices on the street were closer to $60 a gram. --A conservative estimate of heroin addicts in the Eugene area is between 2,000 and 3,000, he said.

Budget talk turns to terror, trucks

Mexican studies at UA worthless
Regarding Adela de la Torre's Nov. 20 column: How negative. How sad.

Number of U.S. Muslims Depends on Who's Counting
With a spotlight cast on American Muslims since Sept. 11, one seemingly simple question has defied a clear answer and become the focus of a politically charged dispute: What is the size of the U.S. Muslim population? -- Four major Muslim organizations released a study in April that estimated the population at 6 million to 7 million. Based in part on that report, most media organizations, as well as the White House and the State Department, have said in recent weeks that there are at least 6 million Muslims in the country.

But there is another enemy within so entrenched it defies conventional police detection. That enemy is political correctness. -- It may explain why pro-American students standing for "God Bless America" at Amherst College respond to an ambush of flag-burners...		 San Francisco Chronicle

1878 Military Law Gets New Attention
America's military is largely prohibited from acting as a domestic police force, but with the increased fears of terrorism, some experts say it's time to rethink those restrictions. -- The law, known as the Posse Comitatus Act, was championed by Southern lawmakers in 1878 who were angry about the widespread use of the Army in post-Civil War law enforcement. -- It currently bans the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines from participating in [...] police-type activity on U.S. soil.
