Cockett CHECK THE FACTS BEFORE LEGALIZING POT Many of our citizens are pushing for the legalization of marijuana. Their contention is that "it does not lead to the use of dangerous drugs." Be careful what you wish for. Some of the many crystal meth addicts say they got hooked on this horrible drug while using marijuana. I suggest that you do a lot of research before legalizing it. There's enough information out there that is available to you. GORDON C. COCKETT Lahaina - --- MAP posted-by: Richard R Smith Jr
