IT'S NOT SHAME IN VALLEJO; IT'S SIMPLE DISCRIMINATION

If Pat Nelson ( "Vallejo: City of Shame," March 29 ) didn't harbor feelings of discrimination, "shame" wouldn't be associated with Vallejo.  Cannabis ( marijuana ) is far safer than beer or wine -- not to even mention whiskey.  Businesses that sell those substances far outnumber dispensaries.

Beer and wine are even sold in grocery stores with minors nearby, for God's sake.  Why does a civilized society allow alcohol sales but still prohibit and exterminate the extremely popular and relatively safe plant cannabis?

Discrimination, that's why.
