FREEDOM OF CHOICE IS OVERRIDING ISSUE

To the Editor:

I'm writing about Ruth Marcus' not-so-thoughtful column: "The perils of legalized pot" ( 1-14-14 ).

The issue is not whether cannabis is completely safe for everybody, but rather freedom of choice for adults.

One in 13 children suffer from food allergies, yet we have no criminalized food.  Children have died from eating peanuts, but we don't cage peanut growers, sellers or consumers.

The voters of Colorado and Washington state have decided we should not cage cannabis growers, sellers or consumers.  I submit that the rest of the nation should follow Colorado's and Washington state's example.
