Pubdate: Fri, 31 Dec 2010 Source: DrugSense Blog Website: http://drugsense.org/blog/ LETTER OF THE WEEK THE RIGHT TO SELF-MEDICATION Re "Medical marijuana user free after plea deal" (News article, Dec. 14): It seems to me that the right to self-medicate should be a fundamental right. Adult citizens of a so-called free country should not have to seek permission from their government to use a natural herb that hasn't killed anyone in the 5,000-year history of its use. For those who oppose the use of marijuana, medical or otherwise, I have some simple advice: Don't buy it, don't grow it and don't use it. Period. Kirk Muse Mesa, Ariz.
