RESPONSIBLE POT SMOKERS

It is commendable to stop citizens from driving while honestly
impaired ('New legislation takes aim at druggy drivers,' The
Chronicle, Nov. 15), as long as citizens who use cannabis (kaneh
bosm/marijuana) responsibly are not targeted for simply having trace
amounts of THC in their body. Just like responsible alcohol consumers
having alcohol in their body may pass impairment tests, so too should
cannabis consumers. Discriminating responsible cannabis users able to
walk-the-line is unacceptable. This is important since various
jurisdictions in North America, have attempted enacting laws
targeting citizens with any trace amount of THC in their body as
being impaired, yet is not a clear case of impairment.
