ADULT CHOICE

I'm writing about Chuck Fore's not-so-thoughtful letter: "Headed for 
doom" (1-24). The cannabis legalization issue is not whether cannabis 
is completely safe for everybody, including children and adolescents. 
It is not. The issue is freedom of choice for adults. Children have 
died from eating peanuts and peanut butter, but we don't cage peanut 
growers, sellers or consumers. And the voters of Colorado and 
Washington state have decided that we should not cage cannabis 
growers, sellers or consumers. I submit that all adults should have 
the same freedom of choice that they have in Colorado and Washington.
