Marijuana Legalization

SELECTIVE LAW ENFORCEMENT

The Seattle Police Department has been trumpeting its respect for and 
cooperation with the new marijuana law ["State's pot era lights up to 
smoke, dreams, angst," page one, Dec. 7]. However, it has also 
announced that it will not be writing citations for smoking pot in 
public, something the new law clearly prohibits.

At times, it seems the SPD is very selective in the enforcement of our laws.
