Comment: Parenthetical remarks by the Sun editor; headline by hawk

BEST REEFER MADNESS ARGUMENT YET 

he LETTER stating it is none of the government's business if people smoke
marijuana had an editor's response: "Yes, it is. It's illegal." This is your
best Reefer Madness argument yet.

Marijuana prohibition is right, you say, because our grandfathers said so
and got a law passed based on the most absurd propaganda ever heard.
Evidently you feel we should continue to jail people because of fraudulent
laws without a shred of scientific support for their supposed purpose.

(Studies prove marijuana use leads to other narcotics.)
