LEAVE MEDICAL POT USERS ALONE

Editor: In response to the editorial suggesting a stand down of marijuana
related arrests and prosecutions. I would like to add that Proposition 215
is not at all confusing. It is not a result of "proposition madness" which
somehow allows poorly written laws to be passed by the voters. On the
contrary it is as clear as a bell. Sick people in California can have, grow
and use marijuana with a doctors recommendation, period.

The only confusion is caused by law enforcement attempting to regulate the
number of plants or amount of marijuana. This is odd, as the law does not
attempt to regulate the amount a patient may posses. Therefore law
enforcement is over stepping their respective boundaries.

Does law enforcement attempt to regulate the amount of any other medicine a
person uses with a doctor recommendation? Of course not. There is no such
law, and, there is no such law to regulate the amount of marijuana a
patient can use. The law, as clearly written, allows as much as they care
or need to grow or posses, period. End of story.

The district attorney in Shasta County should be subject to a recall for
his harassing of patients. He has not upheld the law, as written. He has
violated his oath, and committed a treasonous act. When the people vote a
law, it is the law of the land. No local official has the authority to
abrogate democracy, period. End of story.
