SOME INFLUENCES DICTATE PROHIBITION

Duane Abbott, accused in the vehicular homicide of 7-year-old Cadence 
Boyer on Halloween night, was allegedly under the influence of 
marijuana at the time, according to prosecutors. Four nights later, 
the people of Oregon voted to approve the recreational use of 
marijuana, joining Washington and Colorado. Brad Reed, spokesman for 
Oregon's Yes on 91 campaign, is quoted as saying "We feel the people 
.. took a close look at what prohibition was doing and made a good 
decision." It is my guess that the grieving family and friends of 
Cadence Boyer would disagree wholeheartedly.
