$   "Gingrich Suggests Tough Drug Measure", NYT, August 27, 1995
$   
$   Speaker Gingrich said he would ask Congress to enact legislation imposing
$   the death penalty on drug smugglers, and suggested MASS EXECUTIONS of
$   people convicted under the law might prove an effective deterrent.
$   
$   Mr. Gingrich told about 1,500 people at a youth football and cheerleading
$   jamboree, "And they'd have only one chance to appeal, then we'd kill them
$   within 18 months."

On January 7, 1997, Gingrich introduced H.R. 41, "Drug Importer Death Penalty
Act of 1997", which "mandates that a person convicted of bringing into the
United States '100 usual dosage amounts' of several illicit substances --
including two ounces of marijuana -- be sentenced to federal prison for life
without parole; a second offense brings the death penalty."

#   "I want the Military to expand its use of technology, including
#   reconnaissance and satellites and area surveillance and listening
#   posts...and call the National Guard to move in," said Presidential
#   candidate Bob Dole.
#   
#   "In the Dole Administration, we're going to return to what works. We're
#   going to replace the President's inattention to dangerous drugs with a
#   clear and forceful policy of zero tolerance."
#   
#   "That's ZERO TOLERANCE."
#   
#   "ZERO TOLERANCE for drug smugglers. ZERO TOLERANCE for drug pushers.
#    ZERO TOLERANCE for drugs in the workplace and drugs in school. And
#    ZERO TOLERANCE for illegal drugs
