MANNY MARQUEZ COLUMN

Here's my two cents' worth on things that are probably really none of my business:

( snip )

.  Gov.  Gary Johnson's drug stance.  Our dear governor seems to leave people bristling every time he speaks out on drugs.  While I don't necessarily agree with some of his views on the subject, at least he's advocating changes in laws which appear to be doing little if anything to stop drug use among young people.  The governor isn't exactly endorsing drug use.  He merely seems to be pointing out why current laws can't stop it.

My position is this: Unless you've got a better idea for drug legislation reform, keep your yap shut.
