COLORADO'S EXPERIENCE ARGUES FOR LEGALIZING MARIJUANA

It's commendable that some Republican candidates support decriminalizing the relatively safe, extremely popular and God-given plant cannabis ( marijuana ), but it should be completely re-legalized ( "Marijuana measure sponsors must resubmit petition after using old law," Page B3, Feb.  12 ).

Responsible adults should not be caged or punished in any way for using a substance that has proven safer than alcohol.

Colorado re-legalized cannabis, and every subsequent poll indicates voters continue supporting the end of cannabis prohibition.  A sane or moral argument to perpetuate cannabis prohibition doesn't exist.
