CONSIDER DECRIMINALIZING MARIJUANA

Thanks for Alan Shanoff's column ( "Lawmakers need to consider drug
reform," Nov. 8). To repeat Shanoff, "I'm not in favour of or advocate
pot use, just common sense." I think most of us know that prohibition
is not working. Isn't it time to try a different approach, say,
decriminalization?
