RAISE PENALTIES TO MATCH POT

Response to "Herb or Hops" Opinion front, Sept. 13.

Let us not forget that it is illegal to possess cannabis, therefore
people shouldn't have any amount of THC in their body from cannabis.
Maybe a better solution to the issue would be to increase the
penalties related to alcohol. Less alcohol related injuries and
fatalities, while still cracking down on cannabis. The government just
cares about the money so this would be a big plus.

Lowering the penalties related to cannabis isn't the
answer.
