MEDICINAL POT IS A RIGHT

Dear Editor:

Re: Burnaby medical marijuana dispensary raided by police Thursday, 
Burnaby NOW online, July 29.

Shame on the Burnaby RCMP for making life difficult for sick people.

These sick people in Burnaby who need medicinal cannabis will be
forced to make the long trip to Vancouver to buy medicine.

The sick and disabled should not be treated like second-class citizens
just because we use flowers to feel better. Nobody deserves to go to
jail for flowers. All human beings have the right to use plants as
medicine.

Ellis Worthington,

Vancouver
