POT PROHIBITION IS THE PROBLEM

Re: Faces of pot: The police officer, Jan. 13

What is sadly missing is the cost to taxpayers to fund 120 police
officers dedicated to enforcing failed policies of prohibition. All
the violence and other negative consequences cited are the result of
prohibition, not drugs.

This is the real story and what needs to change, now.
