DELTA WAS WRONG TO STOP ILL PASSENGER FROM FLYING

What kind of Neanderthal thinking motivated Delta Air Lines people to 
refuse a boarding pass to the Boca Raton stockbroker who is authorized to 
use marijuana cigarettes for medicinal purposes ("Medicinal pot smoker 
denied boarding pass," March 28)?

Hasn't this man suffered enough? Where's the rationale for Delta telling 
him he needed written permission from every state he would fly over from 
Florida to the nation's capital?

A Delta spokesman says the airline was "looking into" the incident. In the 
meantime, they should be offering Irvin Rosenfeld a public apology.
