SAFER THAN CIGARETTES

We're talking pot, people, not crack cocaine or heroin (Letters, Nov.
14). It's safer than cigarettes and rarely leads to violence like
alcohol, which are both legal. I guarantee that 50% of the people
every reader knows smokes or smoked weed at some point and they'd all
rather get it from a legal source instead of funding criminal
organizations and prisons.

(Yep. The science just doesn't support pot being illegal.)
