Is The County On The Verge Of A Major Drug War?

In light of recent events that resulted in the murder of one man and the arrest of three including the shooter one must ask are we on the verge of an open drug war. There is no question that the meth business is booming in Giles and surrounding counties but there seems also to be a very big market for other illegal drugs. Drugs are not only people destroyers they are big money makers for the seller and those involved with trying to control and prosecute the dealers.  No matter how hard law enforcement may try they will never be able to control any substance that is desired by a large number of self destructive people.
With this traffic and the money to be made taking control would make someone very wealthy, the wealth will always outweigh the negatives with some people and murder for that wealth will be just a part of doing business.
