POTHEADS DUPE CALIFORNIA

Regarding "Medical pot party planned" (Dec. 31), it  would seem like
Californians would finally get the  point regarding the so-called
medical use of marijuana.

I am sure that marijuana actually helps some sick  people but it
should be controlled by the Food and Drug  Administration and
dispensed as any other prescription  drug is dispensed.

Unfortunately, California has become the laughingstock  of most of the
civilized world for its gullibility. The  state has swallowed the
deception that previous ballot  measures were anything more than a
step toward  legalizing marijuana to give any pothead who stops by a
"clinic" and gets a note from the local quack behind  the counter
access to the illicit drug.
