CANNABIS SHOULD BE MADE LEGAL, TAXED

As a police officer, I arrested several people for DUI which was 
unrelated to alcohol. Stan White is wrong. Cannabis is a 
mind-altering, intoxicating and slightly addictive drug. It is not a 
play toy and should never be used by teens.

I also believe that it should be legal, regulated taxed and given the 
same regulations as alcohol and tobacco. Public safety will improve, 
when we stop chasing adults using cannabis in their homes and instead 
focus on the deadly DUI and reckless drivers.
