LEGALIZATION: OPPOSING VIEWS

Re: "Why not have a discussion on legalization?" letter to the 
editor, Friday, May 4.

Mr. Marc Dube's attack on Port Moody Mayor Mike Clay is a cheap attack
and disturbing act to support legalization of marijuana.

Are we, as a society, so afraid of the criminal acts of these
so-called gangsters that we would be willing to give up our basic
morals, to allow these illegal substances to destroy the lives of
children, families and, eventually, our society? Or is it to save
expenses in keeping these criminals in jails?

So, come on, Mr. Dube and others supporting the legalization of
marijuana, do some real thinking and look at the consequences in
bowing and playing "chicken" behind the gangsters.

Let's declare the war against the criminals and give all the help and
support to our law enforcement units.
