LEAVE POT, GO AFTER HARD DRUGS AND CROOKS

RE: Legalizing pot

Although I believe that human lungs are meant to take in nothing but
clean fresh air, I support the government's imminent plan to end the
stigma of cannabis by legalizing pot. This decision should be
countered with a massive education plan to indicate the potential for
health problems with regular marijuana use. Pot is a mild drug and no
worse than alcohol. If anything should be banned, it should be cancer
causing cigarettes. With legalizing pot, police forces can now
concentrate on protecting us from hard drugs and real criminals.
