STUDY EFFECTS OF MARIJUANA

Editor:

Re: Legalize pot, say officials, Jan, 5.

I would support decriminalization and even legalization of pot if 
three things happened:

1) The short- and long-term effects of smoking pot were fully studied 
and publicized (memory loss, indolence, cancer, emphysema, impotence, etc.?);

2) Pot were sold only in government liquor stores (along with all 
tobacco products); and,

3) The police had a quick and reliable method of measuring a 
pot-smoker's impairment so that dangerous drivers could be 
immediately removed from the road.
