POT SHOPS WON'T HURT CHURCHES

Regarding the letter, "Keep pot shops away from churches," where 
author invites his readers, "what say you." Well, here's what I say: 
I don't have a problem with the city of Everett Planning Commission 
allowing legal "pot shops" next to churches. Also, believe me, I-502 
is not flawed. It has been scrutinized by lawyers inside and out. 
What is now the legal standard is what the voters voted in favor of.

By the way, although I am not the most religious person in the world, 
but last I checked, the Bible said we are all God's children ... that 
would include those who legally own and run "pot shops." You could, 
for instance, invite them to church. You just never know.
