COMMON SENSE SAYS LEGALIZE MARIJUANA

I AM writing in response to your editorial (Jan. 21) concerning
raising the price of cigarettes and the crime associated with the
illegal profits that are realized. The same argument could be said for
marijauna. Legalize, lower the price and remove the lucrative profits
for criminals. Just an idea. Dare I say a common sense one?
