DON'T FEAR LEGAL POT

Re: Big Marijuana Goes Legit, June 7.

The 75-year prohibition on marijuana (and hemp) is now a political 
hot potato, with the inevitable push toward a resolution for 
legalizing, taxing and establishing safeguards. But, most 
importantly, it would take the money out of the dirty hands of 
criminals. And the best benefit of all? A recreational, mind-altering 
substance for those over age 21 that is safer than alcohol or 
tobacco, or even coffee.
